Record and Tape Traders: The Rise and Fall

In the good ol’ days of music sales, there was nothing more fun than browsing the CD section at your favorite music store.  During these years, physical media stores reigned supreme.  Physical media stores operated in every mall, at least three or four times over. These stores sold vinyl, 8-track, cassette, and of course, CD’s. There was competition between these stores, yet prices in mall stores seemed high and selection was always limited.  That’s where Record and Tape Traders comes in.
