"when was the DVD concept first introduced: IMHO it has really been only in about the last year or so that DVD has started[!] to make a dent %wise in the marketplace; i suspect however that overal the DVD platform compared to VCR is still in the minority worldwide"

Per Blockbuster most recent Form 10Q, DVD rental revenues were $469.7 million, up 118.9% from the comparable quarter last year. VHS rental revenues were $538.3 million, down 29.4% from the comparable quarter last year.

DVD rental revenue represents 46.5% of Blockbusters aggregate rental revenues (excluding video games).

DVD holds the distinction of being the most rapidly accepted consumer electronic format of all time.
