There are some good points there and I for one hope Indie stores never go away.

There is NOTHING like spending an hour or two shuffling through the stock at some out-of-the-way mom and pop music store. Those searches for a rare gem, or unheard of find are so enjoyable, if you ask me. And when you DO makes those finds.....awesome!

That about sums it up for me too. I love searching through the stacks.

unfortunately for us all, the glory days of the local music store are behind us. at least we still have online shops for the time being.
