Jennifer: Video rental outlets in Centerville together handled 10,000 fewer video rentals in 1994 than in 1993. The decline in rentals was probably due almost entirely to the February 1994 opening of Videorama, the first and only video rental outlet in the area that, in addition to renting videos, also sold them cheaply.

Brad: There must be another explanation: as you yourself said, the decline was on the order of 10,000 rentals. Yet Videorama sold only 4,000 videos in 1994.

Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the force of the objection that Brad presents to Jennifer's explanation?

• AIn 1994 Videorama rented out more videos than it sold.  
• BIn 1994 two new outlets that rent but that do not sell videos opened in Centerville.  
• CMost of the video rental outlets in Centerville rent videos at a discount on certain nights of the week.  
• DPeople often buy videos of movies that they have previously seen in a theater.  
• EPeople who own videos frequently loan them to their friends.
