This reminds me of when Syd Barrett died. The morning he died I remember having an hour to kill between 9-10am, so I went round the music shops in town (these were the days before downloads) and each one had latched onto his death immediately by placing Pink Floyd CDs everywhere around the store. He died only a few hours before they opened, I was both impressed and sickened by the response time the stores could manage.
