Never understood vouchers.........."I want to give you 20 quid for Christmas but I want to cripple you in how you can spend it." Just give me the fucking cash or buy me something you twat.

You could well be right about HMV, Frank. I can't believe that anyone taking over the chain would keep all the shops open but I could see someone cherry picking the stores with the best profit profile.

Where else can people go in the High St. to buy CDs if the entire chain went? And there are still a lot of people out there that like to have a good browse in a High Street store and walk out with a CD in their hands to play that night.

My ex boss used to manage a bookies. As she said 6 paying in tills. 1 paying out. Guess who wins........

everyone is poor in Peckham?? You really do spout some shit on these forums dont you..and no i dont live in Peckham but i know some very well off people who do!

Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda to name but three...

1. I don't think of Tesco, Sainsbury and Asda as "High Street stores" which I refer to in my post.

2. Have you seen their range of music CDs? No comparison between them and a decent size HMV.

Sad news. What is Bob Holness going to do now?

Bob Holness went under some time ago.

Lets be abundantly clear on this

BlockBusters have gone under because most people can get the films for free by downloading them

You dont hear that on the news.

All you hear is that sales of media online have gone up. I believe thats a truism but it aint accurate until you include that more people have seen it for free than paid for it if you add up all the stats from all the file sharing clients available

If I recall Blockbuster refused to stock porn so immediatley removed themselves from a very large chunk of the rental market, long before the net and downloads were the norm....
