With so many excellent Music sites online, you forget to check out the most famous ones. We’ve all heard of HMV which in the high street. So, what then about the online site.
They go by the motto ‘Top Dog for Music, Video’s and Games’ which sounds ok, but do they deliver?

Well, the site is very good, and immediately they introduce due to the site with a brief outline of what they have to offer. The top CD singles or then placed on the front page and there’s quite a detailed description of the song and band.
Price wise the CD’s are priced at £3.99 which is quite expensive compared to other online music sites like cd-wow.co.uk etc.
The albums were at £11.99 and they had a good collection of classic albums that you may not get in the HMV stores.

They also had a top offer of 3 top DVD’s for £39 which was good going, and they had some good titles which you could chose from. They also had DVD’s for under £10 and some were really good like The Crow staring Brandon Lee, and some good others. Although they did have some not so good ones as well like ‘Spice World’.

However, ten minutes into the site and I felt bored it didn’t have enough to keep you browsing on, and although it was better than I thought and it had some good offers on DVD’s it didn’t tempt me into purchasing.

A site which is better than I thought but still not good enough. One last thing the site is slow which doesn’t help things.
