His master’s social network

This just in - music and film retailer HMV is launching its own social networking site getcloser.com where you can do - well - the sort of things you’ve been able to do on Facebook and MySpace for quite a while.

So why now? Will the punter feel that “the man” is trying to get in on the act? What will it do to drive sales that HMV’s regular e-shots don’t (and I should know, as they consistently empty my wallet).
