I stopped going to bestbuy several years ago when they stopped selling audio CDs. I have to imagine they will be out of business soon.

They have a good business selling appliances, electronics, and computers. I think where they really make their money is on the extended warranties and services. It makes me sad they don't have media anymore, but most everyone streams these days.

Wait, you think they are going out of business by not selling cds and dvds? That is not an important business for anyone anymore and they will now have more space for things that generate money.
