The world's oldest business that rents out copies of movies for private use was opened by Eckhard Baumin Kassel, Germany in the summer of 1975. Baum collected movies on Super 8 film as a hobby and lent pieces of his collection to friends and acquaintances. Because they showed great interest in his films, he came up with the idea of renting out films as a sideline.[1 - from wikipedoa history of video rental places

Really shows you how transient things are, when you read that video rental places, a thing that just seemed to be a part of the world that was always there was really only a viable business for around 40 years.

And Im even probably rounding up out of sentiment since theyve been on life support for over a decade; maybe 25 healthy years tops.
