More bad news for independent record stores--
Now that Aron's Records is closing, another major record store, Rhino Westwood, which has been doing business here for more than 30 years, has announced that it's closing next week.
Causes include music downloading, the popularity of CD sales at Wal-Mart and Best Buy, Amazon.com, and...that enormous store on Sunset Blvd., Amoeba Music.
