CITY VIEWS: DO YOU SHOP IN HMV AND WOULD YOU MISS IT IF IT FOLDED?

“It’s just been wiped out. I don’t think there’s a way for it to undercut. There are so many other competitors like Tesco’s and Sainsbury. It’s lost its market really.”

“Naturally, it has to go, with technology taking control. People are quite lazy and it’s easier and cheaper to sit back and buy online. It’ll be interesting in 50 years to see what the retail high street looks like.”
MATTHEW BAILEY | BROOK STREET
“I’ve shopped online for a couple of years so it doesn’t bother me. They’ve not moved with the times. It’s nice to be able to see what you’re buying in front of you but it’s cheaper online.”
