Guitar Center - circling the drain?

Saw this a while back on Youtube...

I have... mixed feelings... about the possibility of Guitar Center going under. On one hand, I do most of my guitar gear shopping there. I like having the ability to see used pedals and gear from ALL OVER THE COUNTRY all in one place.
On the other hand, they are kinda like the Walmart of guitar stores. They've swallowed up almost everyone. The small local shops I loved to visit when I was a kid and guitar playing was new and magical to me are all gone now, because Guitar Center had a bigger store and fractionally cheaper prices, etc.
