Retail demographics.

Hadn't been in the Midtown stores I used to haunt in a while and noted some changes:

1. The sequencer/groovebox listening room at Sam Ash is gone. There are still a couple of Akai sampling workstations you can demo in the main keyboard room, and two Korg Electribes locked in a glass case there. It looks like software has been expanded but it's hard to say--the boxes are spread around the main room incoherently.

2. The bookstore at the Virgin Megastore has been cut back in floor area. The section outside the cafe formerly devoted to new releases and graphic novels is now T-shirts and I Heart NY tourist crap. Inside the bookstore, shelves have been removed to accommodate a new store area: TV shows on DVD. Science fiction books are down to about 3 shelves, mostly novelizations of movies and TV series.

3. The Loews threatre inside the Megastore, which used to be "state of the art" in the mid '90s, fell on hard times and is now closed. They are using the lobby to store DVD shelving units.

Looks like I'm not the only one spending all my time online.
