The Guardian yesterday told us that:
Lovers of the old-fashioned record shop should think about going into mourning - an online music store has outsold two of its high street rivals for the first time.
But then we find out that the 'old-fashioned record shops' are Tower and Borders! I think lovers of music, and old-fashioned record shops will actually be quite heartened to see iTunes overtake a souless emporium that doesn't sell records anyway, and a bloody bookshop!
Old-fashioned record shops are more like this, and there'll always be a place for them, as long as there are music lovers. We'll continue to buy our records and CDs from shops like this, and buy songs from iTunes and the like. I don't really mind if Borders concentrates on selling books - that's what they're good at. Who buys CDs from there anyway?

I think, those old school music shop is really a no match in the sales of i tunes. But true that these record shop will never be out, since people usually go to buy those albums for collections.
