The 3-floored behemoth is not only the largest bookstore in Texas, but is also indepedent through and through.

Waterloo Records
http://www.jargol.com/images/stores/us/tx/austin/waterloo_records_1_web.jpg
Generic music mega-stores: meet your Waterloo--Waterloo Records that is. The Austin institution has the music-obsessed staff, the personality, and obscure selection of a boutique record shop, with the volume and size of a corporate store. The end result: a store no chain can compete with.
