I don't think we have any of these stores in our area, but still it's sad to hear of them closing.

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16
I don't think I've ever seen one of them. It's pretty rotten that they're closing because someone else might pay a higher lease, though. I suppose nearly all music stores are going in this direction eventually, though. These days, a lot of stores just sell cards that can be used to download an album instead of having the actual album itself in the store.
