| For those who don't know, Rock It Records is located about 1/2-mile
north of the Pheasant Lane Mall with the new Lechmere in it. It
is on Daniel Webster Highway, on the other side of the street from
the mall.
Rock It advertises that they have the largest CD selection in N.H.
But, I suspect that the new Lechmere has them beat.

I was in the new Lechmere Saturday, and bought several disks. I
don't know about Rockit Records, but Lechmere certainly has a very
large selection. This store is also *much better organized than
the ones in Framingham, Woburn and Manchester.
Watch out though: I entered on the second level, and the floor
shakes as people walk through!!!!

| Well, since the Lechmere isn't officially open yet, I suppose
Rockit's claim is still good. Rockit does have a wide variety of
discs, many that Lechmere wouldn't carry, but the Nashua store
DOES have an awful lot of discs, and many copies of each one. If
I was looking for a hard-to-find disc, I'd try Rockit first.

| I've been to both stores, and if you're looking for Classical
music on CDs, Lechmere definitely has a larger collection.
I expect that the number of Rock CDs also outnumbers Rockit
Records. I'm waiting for a sale at Lechmere... and then I'll
buy those CD's I've been waiting for. I think that paying full
price these days is simply not worth it. If you want to laugh,
go to Sears and examine their tiny collection of discs at $18
each!

| I find Rockit has more of the discs that I like (particularly
rare ones). Lechmere, well they may have the biggest, but biggest
isn't the best. ( Not the meat but the motion syndrome?). I travel
from Marlboro to Nashua just to see if Rockit has new rare ones
at least once every two weeks, or if I go to a meeting in ZKO, I
stop by.

Not only does Rockit have rare CD's, you can leave a $5 deposit
at the door and the next time the disk becomes available, they send
you a postcard and you get first dibs on it. I've never tried
cancelling so I don't know if you would loose your deposit if you
find it somewhere else.

| Rockit also has a small, but ever changing, selection of used CDs
priced at $9.95. I've picked up a few gems in visits past.

| Having been both to the new Nashua Lechmere and to Rockit Records, I would say
that Lechmere has more disks, but Rockit carries more titles. Lechmere has
many copies of each CD that they stock. Rockit stocks more titles, but fewer
copies of each. Lechmere has a better classical selection, though.
