With the advance of technology and streaming services, movie rentals are not as popular as they were decades ago - on the other hand, they have become easier because of technology too. While blockbuster does not have individual stores in Rio anymore, inside every Lojas Americanas, one can find ‘cinema machines', where everyone with a credit card can rent movies in DVD and blu-ray by relatively low prices.

Also spread across Rio de Janeiro, are movie rental stores, where for a small fee one can have the pleasure of taking home an entertainment piece to enjoy with the family or friends. One of such places is Canadian Video located in Copacabana, in the Domingos Ferreira Street, 242, loja B. The venue has more than 20 years of history and even now keeps an updated website and provides the public with high quality titles.
