FYE MUSIC -- questions to those who frequent

I have been to FYE twice in a month now with all intentions of spending way too much on the credit card and then...nothing. I do not spend a cent.
I cannot find anything in there that I just have to buy.
It's a diseased mentality. I walk to the door with the "oh Boy" feeling and then I just walk around and look through the infinite piles of unsorted on sale shite.
Anyone else suffer this problem? I know...why go when I can download more music from the www than they possess in an entire store, but maybe part of misses those early 90's days when cd buying and selecting was an art form.

I download a ton of music, paid and pirated... but just something about owning the physical album for me. I like having the disc & album artwork, which some times contains lyrics & extras. I buy all of my favorite artists stuff, and if you go to FYE or Hastings, you can find a lot of old gems, for as low as 1.99 You can't really beat that, other than piracy. I picked up 3 albums that were released just in the past 2 years from FYE yesterday for 12 bucks total... Good deals to me

I'm pretty sure that place is just a front used to launder money made from human trafficking. That's the only way I can figure that it's still open.
ok.

Passed by there today to find a used copy of a CD that I wanted to download and figured the used CD would still be cheaper than the download. I haven't been there in years, but it was on my way to another place I was going. Of course, they did not have it used or new. Selection sucked compared to iTunes or Amazon type online stores. I'm not sure they make money on music/movies anymore. It looked like most people were buying music/tv/movie themed hats, belts, t-shirts and other garbage anyway. Maybe that's what they are marketing now.
