They should never have bought up the Music Zone shops. They've suddenly got 37 new shops, plus a load more boarded-up shops to dispose of and all the Music Zone leftover stock which is presumably a warehouse full of Spice Girls, Ocean Colour Scene, Reef and Lenny Kravitz CDs. Absolute insanity in the current music retail climate. And why have 3 Fopp shops in Bristol and 2 down the road in Bath?! Thats madness. Hold wrote: > Yikes!
