Recently went to my local BestBuy to find a new release by a national artist (after checking the locally-owned record stores). Not only did they not have it, but the CD section had shrunk by 75 or 80% since the last time I had browsed it a few months earlier.

And I could rant for a long while about Geek Squad after wrangling with customer service for months about activating a simple anti-virus software I renewed through them. Won't be using them again for anything.
