    HMV is just about the only places you can walk into and browse through the CDs.
    It seems the 'younger' generation prefer to 'download' - so why is it the music in the stores always cater to a 'younger' audience.

    Frightening really as I prefer and know vinyl is still the superior medium!:D

    I bought an HMV gift card today for £20 but used my debit card. I understand that if there is a problem I should be able to get the bank to do a charge back on the card. I'm a bit hazy about that but I believe you can do that if you have a problem with a firm.


    That's debatable.

    Even a section 75 isn't clear on gift cards.

    HMV Managers are being called to a meeting this week on the future of HMV.
    By all accounts things are not looking good at all and managers are fully expecting them to go into administration.
    ( yes I do know a manager at HMV) and he thinks it will be this week that the bad news is released to the public.
    If you have gift cards etc please spend them ASAP.
