Just wondering how many of the Gauteng members support or used to support what was previously CD Wherehouse in Rosebank. Is the mp3 revolution slowly killing them or is it the Musica influence that is the problem?

I used to love browsing their store and have bought many albums there. Of late, stock seems to be an issue. Almost no Marillion back catalogue, same for Suzanne Vega, same for Iron Maiden...just a few examples. I mean, none of these are obscure artists. Our local Musica is tiny and of course the selection is extremely limited. At the moment Look and Listen seem to be more on top of their game, at least in the stores I've visited.
