      Who are the people that thought the likes of HMV were going to survive? If I'd been a shareholder, I'd have got out 5 years ago.
      Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

            I have fond memories of HMV I always used to go in there as a kid and listen to the latest releases, I took my daughter in there Christmas eve and she fleeced me for a Little Mix CD lol. I'll miss the place but I do believe they could have better structured their online business to support their physical retail stores

            Hahaha wrong thread too!! damn it

              I am suprised it has gone on so long.

              I worked there 20 years ago in central london, it was chaos, Dept managers and their assistants doing 'deals', credit card fraud hourly.

              Out of control back then.

                Had good memories of HMV. But I haven't been in there in a few years as I don't really buy or listen to much music anymore. Most anything I listen to is on last.fm or YouTube.
