Internet music retailer Juno (www.juno.co.uk) offers the largest range of dance music titles of any shop in Europe. And, despite never having promoted the site, the company ships around 1,000 orders a week, with an average value of between £25 and £30.
'We attract around 20,000 user sessions a week,' says partner John Atherton.
'Some are fairly obsessive and visit more than once a day - this is stuff they'd struggle to get elsewhere.' The site was launched two years ago, with the aim of providing a listing of every UK dance release. To this end, Juno buys a copy of every release - around 300 a week - from all of the UK's 30-plus importers and distributors and maintains a complete archive of releases from the past four years.
