As time go on, most stores except grocery will be gone.
Them too. They ain't gettin' saved.
In Atlanta, 15 years ago there about a half a dozen Farmer's markets in the metro...now, there are 9 TIMES as many.
The #shoplocal game is going to bring grocery chains to their knees.
Sh!t is basically going back to how my parents grew up: farm to table with the ability to match larger chains logistics due to technology.
No one is safe.
Im with you 2 kats, I wanna hold whatever it is, in my hand and get a feel for it. I like tryin on shoes, because every size 12 isnt the same!! But, I think were in the minority when it comes to shopping, the majority of these young folks wanna shop online and they have a million reasons why to shop online..
Yeah, we are.
I shop big and tall and has been HELL all my life, but the way these mail order companies have streamlined returns is putting pressure on brick and mortar clothiers.
Like music, the better the quality, the more I want a physical copy. Just to see it in my collection instead of digitally stored. Plus there's no resell in digital.
It is a psychological paradigm shift.
Live audio was just recorsed by your memories.
Next physical media went phonograph, 45, 8 track, tape cassette, then cd.
Now, it is back to being not physical via 0's and 1's.
And as we did before, we will adapt.
No doubt, I hear you and agree. I was being halfway sarcastic. I was being serous about digital media dominating music and gaming now.
Kinda like how, in the Pizza Hut thread, no one claimed to eat pizza from any of the major chains....but they're still around and much bigger than the other places. A lot of people are just caught up on nostalgia.
It reveals how many white customers these chains have, too.
BTW, Pizza Hut should be renamed Sodium Hut.
The most popular game right now is 100% free to download and play on every platform.... Fortnite.
I can see the death of physical media for games coming.



I can't get my sons off the XBOX for shit!
