Last week was Record Store Day again, raising the question: How long can record shops survive? I used to work in a good one (hi Phill, Danny, Ged, Steve, Smarty etc) and I hope it’s a long time, but I’m pessimistic.

This week I was looking online to buy an obscure reggae compilation – Reggae Anthology: The Channel One Story Volume Two, since you ask – and none of the usual suspects had a price I wanted to pay.

So I used http://www.tunechecker.com/ to find the cheapest – and it took me to Tesco. And I bought the CD.

Hardly as cool as popping into a groovy disc shop, but several pounds cheaper…
