Advantages: Has a good range of stuff

Disadvantages: They seem to display the price on the outside of the packaging

This is the internet branch of the high street music selling giant that is HMV. They sell exactly the same things on their website as they do in store- cds, dvds, games and the odd ipod. There are some things that I like about this website, and some that I don't. I think that their free delivery service is very fast and the last thing I bought came within four days which I reckon is pretty good.


There was something that annoyed me about the delivery though and this was that the price was displayed on the packet. I bought a cd for fathers day and so it really wasn't something I wanted, especially when given that it wasn't me that received it at the door, there is a reasonable chance that my dad saw the price.

Another good thing is that they seem to have a good range of music on here, and sometimes have very good prices, particularly on jazz where they have quite a few cds at 3 for £10. This makes getting a small present quite easy. There is another thing that annoys me which is that there never seem to be very many reviews on the website, whereas there are nearly always loads on Amazon for instance.

This website is a bit of a mixed bag but I think the good things out weigh the bad and so it gets four stars from me.

Summary: Good but amazon is better I think.
