I miss conversations with people at specialized book stores. I miss spending hours looking through the aisles. It was a great way to spend an afternoon on the weekend.

I like the convenience of purchasing books online. Admittedly, though, I've lost the whole community and culture of books that small bookstores provided.

That’s me but with cd’s.

As a kid growing up in uk interested in US hip hop the specialist shops and their clientele turned me onto a whole different world.
