Lotusflow3r LIMITED time in HMV

Was in HMV today reading the staff review of Lotusflow3r, it mentioned that you can buy the album from the website and that it will be sold in HMV for a limited time. This is the first time I have heard of an album being sold in a record shop for a limited time, thought it was rather strange.

This gimmick has been used several times before (by other artists) 2 move product. Generally, it has 2 do with a one-off print run of an album or single, or a limited edition release, and the idea is 2 motivate people 2 make the purchase sooner rather than later. If successful, it also guarantees that the album won't be sitting in the store as inventory.
