After a 20+ year run, the VHS cassette is finally on its way out. (Until the great VHS fetish of 2017, that is.) This past October, the last major distributor of the product--a Florida-based company--made its final delivery to a Burbank, CA reseller, who was the last of his kind in the US.
The major movie-renting chains like Blockbuster started phasing out VHS tapes from their inventory about five years ago. 2006's A History of Violence was the last major Hollywood film released on the format.
