I get it, there’s no way of stopping “progress.” But I wonder if there might be a price to pay for all of this? Whether it be clothing stores or music/media stores, I’m Unsure if ridding ourselves of public spaces where people meet and interact in favor of online shopping is a net positive. There was something to be said about going with friends or family and buying a cd. Going to the store and trying out clothes. Waiting in lines and talking to people. Interacting with someone at the counter. Having to buy an entire album and learn the music from the entire album instead of just downloading one of your favorite songs.
