Shroud -- I think it depends how narrow you want to make this question/answer... Narrowly speaking, "does less video stores make it harder for people to discover classics?" that question answers itself: 'yes'. Less folks go to the library to find these classics as well. But in the bigger picture of today versus 10-30 years ago, with the Internet, accessing the horror classics is extremely easy and inexpensive. I don't know that anyone feels restricted to one streaming service's offerings.
But also, in the US, it appears each younger generation is less informed, and less interested, in history, including horror classics. A lack of interest in the horror classics is likely more consequential than shrinking rental stores.
