Amoeba plug

Your article on record store clerks [“The Music Clerks Who Can Spin Your World,” Dec. 9] is one of the most ridiculous fluff pieces I have ever witnessed.

The inclusion of a few other record stores around the L.A. area (where’s Rockaway, Eastside or Atomic Records?) does not cloud the fact that this article is another free advertisement for Amoeba. Interesting how Scott Timberg doesn’t point out that Amoeba, a behemoth, is slowly destroying the smaller record stores in L.A.

I, for one, am sick of reading about the holiness of Amoeba.
