Thought this place was on Queen St. but it’s actually on Bloor. I have nothing else to contribute here.

As streaming services seem to be continuing to whittle down their collections of stuff they don't own, and more and more streaming services come online, creating additional costs, we're going to wish all these video stores hadn't closed up shop.

Damn, only one major store left: Bay Street Video.

I am pretty old school and prefer BD picture and BD audio over streaming services.

I definitely be there to pick up some of my favourites.

Can't wait to see what flavour of bubble tea or kawaii little trinkets/clutter store will replace it. Or maybe another salad bar?

Sad, but also shocked it hadn't happened earlier. Last time I was there was 15 years ago. And I still lived in Toronto for 10 of those.

Too many streaming services carry such crap selections of the movie of the month

Couple this with the Marvel Apocalypse (I still blame them for basically destroying the movie industry as nothing else seems to get made these days) and the end is nigh

Koodo $40 Canada Wide + 8GB + 1000 Intl LD
Public $120 Province Wide + 12GB - $6 Autopay - $12 Loyalty - $45 Refer = $19 per Month
Freedom $35 ($37-BTS) North America Wide + 8GB + 1GB Roaming
