Bucked trends: Opening a record shop

Proving that there aren't, actually, any hard-and-fast rules about selling music in 2007, a record store has just celebrated its first birthday. Phonopolis, in Montreal, is not only a shop making a success of selling physical product - but 70% of its sales are on vinyl. It's probably about 1990 since there's been a new shop that does that anywhere in the world.

Please don't anybody else be dull enough to point out that the year is in fact 2008...

It opened in 2007, though. I suppose the tense could have been a bit tighter.
