The Wherehouse store near me (1 of 2 in Tallahassee) has a wretched CM
selection.  My son gave me a gift certificate for Christmas last year, and
they were unable to get *any* of the classical CD's that I wanted.  They
finally just gave me the money.

However, they not only will let you trade in CD's, but this particular
store also carry many used ones.  I can go to another local used record
store and pick up some for as little as $.25 and trade them in.  The local
Specs will also let you trade in a CD for $3.00 off on a purchase.  Too
bad they have such a dwindling supply of CM CD's.  I think that the
recently-opened Borders just down the street may deal Spec's a killing
blow.  Specs' prices are higher and their selection is really bad now.
