Their need for intelligence - apart from knowing which distributor to go to in order to fulfil my request - is essentially zero. The idea that the clerk in a high-street music-shop has even *heard* of Initial-D let alone knows anything about the original soundtrack would never occur to me.

Yes and no. Depends on the person buying and how much they know about that 'few seconds of a track they heard on the radio last week'. The Diskery in Birmingham is a very famous record store and the blokes in there must know every record ever made, well, not far off. Believe me, there are times when a high level of knowledge of recordings can come in handy for the buyer.
