The death of the record industry
Former Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania record story proprietor Paul Mawhinney owns about one million record albums and about a million and a half record singles, making his the world's largest record collection. This fascinating short documentary explores how he built it and, due to a struggling record industry and his own ill health, why he was forced to close his store is now selling his collection. It's a poignant glimpse at impermanence; of a passionate human life buffeted by impersonal market machinations.
