Re:rumours about problems at HMV ? 14 Years, 6 Months ago
Here is what Robert Swannell , chairman of both M&S and HMV, should do immediately. Put HMV concessions, similar to Harrods in the 100 biggest M&S Stores and stock the Top 30 albums and major catalogue releases by heritage acts. Take advantage of the huge foot fall and sell more records to the "Grey market"

It's the beginning of the end. HMV are neither a specialist any more nor a discounter. 60 shops to go this year. 100 will probably go next year, then the rump will be sold to whoever identifies a way to extract any remaining value.
