Re: HMV goes into administration

Our local HMV always had a good range of DVDs and CDs - but I could never stay in there for more than a few minutes at a time because they played music loud enough to deafen you - and I have very sensitive ears!

There used to be a record shop in Soho that was open all night, can't remember the name now. Great for finding imports.

That depends on your taste in music.
Some members would quite happily enjoy listening to a classical music concert at full blast.
