For how long will those stores be closed and how many of them?
It really differs depending on the area and is obviously up to the descretion of each store owner/company. Historically, it used to be that many stores in Japan would shut down for several days the first week of January; everything other than essential stores like the grocery and stuff. Nowadays, especially with the economy they don't seem to close as much. Tokyo for example has a lot of stores back up and going after about 2 days. Outside of Tokyo I don't know, but they probably stay closed longer.

It seems the economy is really effecting the normal holiday though because on the Tower Records Shibuya site it says they will not be closing at all in Dec. or Jan.
