HMV LEICESTER - Complete 4K shelves

The great HMV Leicester store has been trading for 33 years as of 2023. It was previously set over three floors but the upper floor is now closed off leaving the upper ground floor and lower ground floor. It is still a very impressive store and bigger than most. The upper ground is primarily for music CD's and vinyl records and the lower ground is home video with a few other items such as record decks, posters, tee-shirts, books and other collectibles. The video disc aisles are long and impressive so I tried to capture the 4K shelves and aisle in full for this video.

Nothing like that here in Australia anymore. Did have HMV and Virgin Megastores here a long time ago. Beautiful store, thanks for filming. Just a bit jealous! But gladder that people get to enjoy such stores. We have stores that still sell physical, but their range is nothing like this. Love shopping in an actual store over Amazon or the like. A great experience to see the titles and buy them off the shelves.

Love these videoes. They back the smile on my face but also a tear to my eye. Sad that streaming has destroyed most of them. Here in Norway you cant find them anymore, just two physical stores is left. Great to see shops like these actually is still there. Hopefully there will be more stores once more.

Thoroughly enjoyed the tour, thank you. You are so lucky to live close to such a unique brick and mortar business catering to physical media fans.

HMV has consistently been one of the few stores I always visit in my local town centre for 20+ years. These days I almost always buy something on 4K, often from the ongoing 2 for £30 deal

wow, incredible!
hmv all but closed in Canada but we do have sunrise records, and I go in there few times a month to buy from the very limited collection of 4k
they have a buy 3, get 15% off deal all the time so I make sure to triple up. prices are above average, compared to amazon, but I like to talk to manager and browse.
thanks John!

This is amazing!!! I wish there were physical media stores like this still in the U.S. Best Buy, Target, and Walmart barely carry any 4K, Blu-ray or DVDs anymore...

[benjaminjensen]

Wow the 4k section looks very tempting and this video is in 4k it seems. Good job john.

Superb video as always John. It’s always nice to look inside the various HMV stores across the country and thank you for the shout out for my channel! I’m glad you enjoyed my tour of the HMV Belfast. I’m heading to Dublin this Saturday for a 70mm screening of Oppenheimer so I’ll be on the lookout for the Dublin HMV store.

Great show as always John. I've got Jaws 2 sat here for a showing this Saturday evening, really looking forward to it.

[andypickeringmusic]

Great to see ! I remember buying Slap Shot with Paul Newman on Vhs in that basement. Gotta go back to see Leicester soon. Thanks John for the lovely video 😊

[PINOYHTatbp]

Wow! Fantastic video store. How I wish we still have video stores here in my country.

This is video Nirvana. Since the demise of video stores here in the States, I have had to depend on Amazon (US and UK) and Barnes & Noble for my physical media. It is nice to see that stores like this still exist somewhere in the world.
