They’ve been circling the drain for a while. We lost ours a couple years ago. Amazon casualty.

Hadn’t been to the one in Indy in a while, went in to get some computer parts and the place was all but barren. Parking lot had not been mowed or attended to. Knew then it was on the way out. That was last summer.

Amazon and streaming.

Just as Best Buy tried to pivot into cellphone support.

CDs and DVDs may not have been the moneymakers but they kept people coming in the stores.

Also blank CD-Rs etc became “a thing of the past”

It seems our economy is becoming dependent on Amazon. I can start a small business that is only viable if I team up with Amazon.

...then what if Amazon doesn’t like me? At the flick of a switch they can turn me off.

Amazon is already way too powerful.

Amazon casualty.

I'd say poor service and crap products probably had more to do with it.
