Edit "Which came first I wonder, Keysgate or the ad?" - filmed last Nov. If I'd bothered to read the whole article.

Just got home from a rare browse round the shops in our nearest big town. Dropped into HMV and saw first hand how screwed up the "tangible" entertainment market has become.

Two extremes. At one end, Bowie's Hunky Dory for £4. That's less than the coffee and bun I'd had earlier, but roughly same as Amazon.

At the other, Season 1 of Curb Your Enthusiasm for, and I kid you not, £27. That's right. Twenty seven pounds. Currently on Amazon for £7.19 where the box set of all seven series will set you back, cough, £39.99.

Gulp.
