OK, let's take it your way. They don't want internet but are willing to go to the store.

A portable device that can be brought to the store and any movie you want can be put on it while you wait. It would take less time than the time it takes to brouse the shelves.

Again, think outside the box. All forms of data storage that is not of a dynamic nature is dated.
That's inside the box...

If they go to the store with something in their hand that contains media, it no longer is the issue you are tying to make of physical media being phased out because of downloads. You are presenting an entirely different scenario now. It's still physical media and your original statement that "downloadable formats will eventually win" would no longer be accurate.
