HMV’s retail sales dropped 8.2 per cent over Christmas.
It is obviously still a challenging time for the entertainment specialist, but the results are better than they were when the Group last updated the City in December.
The results are for the five weeks ending December 31st, 2011.

Sales of technology items were up 51 per cent for the five week period, again a stark improvement over December’s Interim Statement.
