lucky they resolved this as Tesco is the only place where cds can be purchased in my town at relevant prices, unless people use a sole trader business called rythmic which cells for terrible prices, whereas albums which would be £8 or £9 in tesco, are £12 - £14 at Rthymic, its a scam.

 

im sure many other places have similar problems.

 

Enjoy Rhythmic while it's still there. I don't live in Greenock but I always make a point of going to that store when I go there, and it's a great little independent CD store. There is no way that they can compete with Tesco, and I certainly don't grudge them a pound or two to give them a little bit of profit. Most chart albums were around £9.99-£11.99 the last time that I was in, but they had loads of special offers too, mainly on back catalogue.

 

It has probably only survived cos Woolies in that centre closed down, and WH Smith gave up on CD's around the same time (still a baffling decision as surely there was a market there to be exploited)

 

Tesco are already threatening to reduce shelf space for CD's (and some stores are already noticeably cut back), so let's hope that there are still some independent stores out there when the supermarkets give up on music.

 

I love the instancy of downloads, but I much prefer to have a physical copy of an album.

Exactly how i feel :D

 

I do like to get physical copies of singles though if they are Cheryl Cole ^_^

Don't mess with the Tesco ;p ha

yes am not stupid! and life in a freaking nutshell? honestly was there any need for a smart remark?

 

Excuse me? How about buying a sense of humour along with your next CD?
