In todays world of constant change, traditional methods of consuming media are quickly going the way of the dodo. Look at newspapers, music and tv - things are moving so fast that sometimes it's hard to keep up with the newest and best ways to watch a movie, listen to a song or read that killer article.
It's strange that in the same high street where HMV has reduced from 3 giant superstores to 1 (which is shutting after Christmas), one store selling CD's, DVD's and boxsets is absolutely booming. And this my friends is simply down to 2 things:
1. What must be razor thin margins on the products they sell, often out pricing Amazon most of the time.
2. Fans or completists of physical media must buy it and own the product still.
That's Entertainment is perfect for picking up cheap DVD's for a present, or if you can't be bothered with the likes of Netflix/Lovefilm then getting a few in for the weekend. Their 2 for £5 and 3 for £5 deals being particularly attractive.
If you still buy CD's, there's loads of classic albums throughout but you're probably not going to find that rare Japanese import you've been after for a while.
New releases and box sets are stocked on release date, usually in small numbers but realistically priced to make you afford and enjoy the interaction with a human as opposed to needing to go online and wait for it to be delivered.
