Retailing Era Closes With Music Megastore

I remember going to the Times Square Virgin Megastore many times when I was a young teenager and being overwhelmed each time. It was three stories of ecstacy - computer games, books, graphic novels, CDs, DVDs, European and Asian magazines, and just random fun crap. They always had stuff you couldn't find at Borders or anywhere else. At one point there was a cafe in there too. I would spend hours there.

It's crazy that it's closing. I mean, yes, it makes lots of sense and I'm not against it or anything. It's more just that it makes the passage of time and the changing of everything extremely tangible. It's like history passing and I can see it going by right in front of my eyes.
