The image is a bar graph that displays the annual number of rentals and sales (in various formats) of films from a particular store between 2002 and 2011. The vertical axis represents the annual number of rentals/sales, ranging from 0 to 250,000. The horizontal axis represents the years, ranging from 2002 to 2011. Four types of film formats are shown: Rentals, VHS sales, DVD sales, and Blu-ray sales. Each year has four bars representing the number for each format. The bars for rentals are consistently the tallest across all years, with a slight decline from 2002 to 2011. VHS sales start from a considerable number in 2002, with a steep decline to almost negligible by 2011. DVD sales show an upward trend until 2005, remain relatively stable until 2009, and then display a slight decrease in 2010 and 2011. Blu-ray sales start from zero in 2002, show a small increase in 2006, and then a significant upward trend from 2007 onwards, reaching a peak in 2011. Specific numerical data points or percentages are not visible; however, the trends and relative comparisons between formats and over the years are clear.

The bar graph illustrates the figures for rentals and sales of films every year at a store from 2002 to 2011. Overall, the quantity of rentals and VHS sale presented a gradual decrease, while there was a dramatic increase of DVD and Blu-ray numbers.
The evolution of rentals and VHS had seen significant changes over the years. In 2002, the annual number of film rentals and VHS sale reached a peak of 185,000 and 85,000, respectively. Over the later period, a decrease was witnessed in both formats. It was noticed that VHS format was no longer sold in 2006, then it was replaced by the introduction of Blu-ray in the following year. By 2011, the lowest number was recorded in rental at approximately 58,000.

The figure for DVD sale increased more than fourfold from around 48,000 in 2002 to 215,000 in 2007. Between 2008 and 2011, a slight decrease in the sales of DVD was seen, and it hit the lowest point at 180,000 during this period.
