I am currently feeling quite sad .

After 40 years , this little independent record shop is closing .

Was chatting to the owner a little while ago , ironically , it is Vinyl sales that has kept them afloat recently .

**** you Amazon & Illegal down loads .
I don’t even download music anymore, I just stream via Spotify Premium when I want music

People’s habits have changed mate.

yeah with the Dvds/Bluerays. I used to own quite a few but having moved flats a few times, i just dumped them all and haven't got one since.

I don't see the need especially since it's not like i ever just pick one up and watch it. I think in the past when you have mates come round/at university etc but nowadays just me and my missus.

I have a list on Netflix if I want to watch TV or a film. Easy.
