Wait a sec, they got rid of the HMV? Last time I was there was thanksgiving of 2016. Oh well it's still a pretty cool place there, I plan on asking my uncle who was in the military to bring me to the military base there next time my family goes to Edmonton (were around Lethbridge).

Yeah HMV closed down all their stores in Canada a few months ago, which is kind of a shame, because I used to go there too for new CDs :/

What is HMV?

It's a store that sells music cds, some movies and video games of usually varying degrees of quality, and a few merch for some nerdy stuff (I've seen shirts for star wars, superheroes, Legend of Zelda, and more)

Also did a bit of research on it and I was surprised I didn't know about this.  But the company is actually an UK based company named His Masters Voice, as in the ones who came up with this famous picture in the early 20th century:

Never heard of them, probably a commonwealth thing (Aus, NZ, Can, UK, etc.)
