Rogers Video is the largest Canadian-owned chain of video stores, and 5th largest in North America. A division of the Rogers Cable subsidiary of Rogers Communications, it operates over 300 stores, second only to Blockbuster Canada (which has over 400). Rogers stores also provide sales and service for Rogers cable TV, Internet, Home Phone and cellphone service in markets where Rogers offers these products. The chain grew considerably in the 1990s through take-overs of smaller, local chains. For example, in Saskatchewan Roger's took over the TVS Video Superstore and Family Video chains.
Rogers Video has also partnered with ZIP.ca to provide an online DVD rental service, Rogers Video Direct, which allows users to rent online and have DVDs delivered by mail.
In October 2006, Rogers Video announced it would no longer charge late fees for video rentals nor would it charge any restocking fees on videos returned past the due date.
