It appears to me that EMI no longer care about record shops.
They would prefer to ship to fewer accounts on a misguided money saving exercise. They seem to forget that it is independent record shops that champion new bands and local artists. Who is going to do this in the future? Anybody interested in this subject should check out the book Last Shop Standing which gives a real insight into how all the record companies have let down record shops and contributed to thousands closing. I read it last week and have since been in shock at the horrific corruption of the music industry./div>
