Mom and pop stores still do have many VHS tapes. There is one down the street from where I live that's still about 80% VHS. The new release wall takes two walls have both formats. The DVD section is just one wall. (The fourth wall is the entrance/exit)
It's the Blockbusters, Hollywood Videos, and Movie Galleries that are fading out the VHS to make room for DVDs. These stores stay around because of those that refuse to give into the new technology.

I was watching the Clerks cartoon show last night. Remember at the end of the second episode, JaySpoiler:
is older and typing his life story. He says what happened to all the characters. He says that Randal owns the video store now.I think that's funny considering the ending of Clerks II.
Well KS probably remember that and maybe thats why the movie ended how it did.
Well, that was him making fun of the other movies.
Spoiler:
Silent Bob always has something to say (except Dogma, he just talked when he needed to). It was a great moment in the first Clerks. Now, after five movies, fans expect Silent Bob to speak. Kevin Smith saw that so he added that line, which was genius. "Shit, I got nothing."
Clerks 2 has yet to be released in Australia (comes out this Thursday) however, I was able to see it with probably the best screening possible. I went to the Australian premier that followed with ba Q & A with the man himself Kevin Smith.
I thought that the movies was absolutely awesome. KS had some shit down to the letter (e.g. Randall talking about LOTR) and I thought the drama in the movie was very believable and real.
The Q & A was awesome. KS said some very interesting and funny stuff and I got to take the mic and ask a question which was probably the best thing ever. I was planning to ask a question but before I got to the mic some one had already asked it and so I asked a really general question as to what he had plans to do in the future. However, when I reached the mic I hadn't structured the questioned properly and I ended up saying something a long the lines of "What projects to you have planned for the future, I know you're doing that Ranger Danger thing, but are you going to do anything other kind of stuff?..." to which he retorted "Any kind of stuff? Well when I go to my hotel room I plan to **** my wife" to which I answered "Is that going to be on the DVD?". It was very amusing and funny. Although he did mention that he wants to do a horror movie next, followed by another comedy and then probably Ranger Danger.
