Background

Over the last couple years we being my friend (Brad Tunes) and myself (Chris Camburn) have been discussing opening a small vintage record store made out of good old brick and mortar. Now given that most of these types of businesses have become obsolete due to the digital music revolution we have decided to open a classic record store with a digital twist located in the center of the very popular shopping center Santana Row. We will combine old vintage records with the option of hooking your listening device up to a hub where you can transfer audio files from our large database of records. You will also have the ability to access the files of other customers while in the store, listen to what they are listening to and transfer with one another, all in all creating a one of a kind customer/user experience. The name of the business will be DigiBox!!
