27/07/2007 Borders’ Top 50 albums – a mixed bag
With the demise of the groundbreaking Fopp chain, Borders is once again my retailer of choice. Its books offer is deeply impressive, and for magazines it has set new standards. I rarely leave a Borders branch empty-handed. But I don’t often buy music there – the CD/DVD stock lacks depth and is often uncompetitive on price. Borders UK’s current competition asking customers to rank the top 50 CDs is laudable, but it underlines the lack of focus of its music offer.
