I know I'll miss Tower. Mine (66th & Broadway) was unusual in that they had an entire floor dedicated to classical and opera - and the selection was actually pretty deep. The prices were high, but over the years I've picked up some pretty great things that I couldn't find in other stores.

I suppose my buying habits are shifting towards used albums on Amazon, but I know that I'll miss the quick fix of heading into Tower. Also, I knew the head buyer there for the classical department - he had been around for more than a decade and was really dedicated. I don't think there are many places that would satisfy him after working at that branch...

When their discounts get more realistic (10% at the moment, which still puts them higher than many other places) I'll go in there and spend a thousand bucks or so...
