This might as well have been titled "Why buy CDs at HMV?" Now that Tower's
finally lumbering their pointless ass into the dustbin of history, HMV has
apparently been anxious to usurp the mantle as "The most utterly pointless
record store chain in the country." Prices: Sky high. Selection:
Extremely limited. Reason to shop there: None that I can see.
But just because a bunch of chains that SHOULD be failing miserably are in
fact failing miserably, I don't see why that means record stores in general
are going to disappear completely.
