A stupid question perhaps, but do you even need brick and mortar stores now to break even? Personally I do most of my shopping online because for a start it's more convenient and it's where all the best deals are. In HMV they're selling the Diary Of The Dead tin for £10 but on their website it's £7. It seems that I'm coming back from Birmingham city with fewer and fewer DVDs and CDs because it's hard to find good deals in the shops there. And judging by things I read on forums most people are in the same boat and mostly use Amazon and that now.
It's just a shame Play don't get their stock sorted out because that must be costing you a lot of money. Even their marketplace section was quiet last time I checked regarding Shameless DVDs.
