I do. I enjoy the experience of shopping in a locally-owned record...er... "disk" store. They can order just about anything, and they have used which they let you listen to. From Backdoor in Cotati to Downhome in El Cerrito to the non-bigchain stores on Telegraph in Berkeley (and hopefully many others I do not know of) , there is a vast number of artists and titles that just do not show up in major ad or review channels. So I buy a few fewer disks per year , the stores are open, I have an occasional fascinating browsing experience.
