# I'm not sure they sold CDs
it seemed to be all Dr Dre headphones and IPads when I last looked

# Dear Lord
I don't think even people tripping on overpriced coffee are daft enough to buy Dr Dre headphones, which so far as I can tell are mushily bass-heavy headphones whose parts cost about six quid, sold for £120.

Maybe the coffee shop will flog off some iPods.

Actually I was in that HMV perhaps a year back, I don't remember a coffee shop :( It might have made the experience slightly more pleasant because it was a horrible place to be otherwise.

# they moved it, it's not in the main shopping centre any more, it's over by the Grafton shit hole

# Oh, right. Shows how recently I've been in Cambridge
Thinking about it it might even be two years.

# Which was a stupid decision on HMV's part.
The Grafton Centre is, as you say, a hole. I prefer going to the Fopp now instead, even though it's much smaller. I'm sure they're missing out on custom by no longer being in Lion Yard.

# I got some Audio Technica ATH M50s for my birthday
They're fantastic headphones, albeit somewhat pricey. Call me old-fashioned but I quite like headphones with pretty much a flat response.

Don't have a famous name on them though.

Apparently the Motorhead phones are pretty good.
