gameon: Woolworths stores were sold off to various companies (mostly wilkinsons) and there was a new company that set up an internet store with the same name.
HMV are in trouble along with Jessops etc (you have probably heard all about it too). Entertainment retailers are struggling because of online/digital sales......... not that i blame GOG :O
Jessops are fully dead last I heard, that said they had upper management problems for a long while, the only reason they didn't go under sooner was that HSBC bought them.
I've also heard that Blockbuster are on the rocks as well
