In addition to its strong hip-hop stock, there are plenty of DVDs, too. Extremely browse-able, this store festoons its walls with rock kitsch and framed magazine covers that are tempting for those with money to burn and a dorm-room or office to decorate.

They actually still have records! That was kind of cool. This place also has a pretty good selection of CDs and DVDs as well, and it's a fairly diverse sample of genres.
