Amazon is good, I like going directly to label online stores, like waxploitation and Positron.

HMV's managment team consists of 3 monkeis on crack and a dead frog in a jar.

I went in there several times and saw a mark down bin full of new, unopened, or japanese imported cd's. The japanese ones were unopened and in engilsh ... they jsut had a peice of paper over the spine with japanese writing.

But anyways i went through this bin and found "Soilworks - Natural Born Chaos" and "OLP - happiness ..." I never saw the soilworks one on the other shelves, but i found OLP with the rest of the OLP cd's ... the same cd i pullled out of the discount bin was on teh shelves for about 26 bucks ... in the discound bin it was marked down to 10.99. Before i found "NIN - The downward spiral" in their mark down bin as well ... it was in for $16, on the normal shelves it was $31 ... fucking idiots ... if you mark soemthing down, mark all of it down, not just a few copies.

Plus their DVD's are ridiclious ... most of them are about $52 each ... at elast for Anime they are ... live action is a bit mroe tollerable.

I buy mostly all my CDs off ebay, but I sometimes go to Fye.

do you buy new or used?

I'd think a lot of people would like to you, about a Cd being new or not.

I get my jazz & world beat CD's from amazon. They're good to cross reference what you like for what you'd probably like.

Plus, I don't have to leave my house.

I haven't bought a cd in about 3 years. In fact 3 yrs ago I sold all the cd's I owned at the time. I somehow have a huge music library on my computer....

Beware of Kazaa though, unless you like lawsuits. There are better options out there.

Really the internet is the only place I can find so much of the rare music I listen to, including many remixes of songs by various dj's and rare groups.

I usually go to CD Warehouse. It's within walking distance and their used CDs (being the majority of their inventory) are usually in fairly good condition and about $7-$8. Decent selection, too, though a bit lacking in the punk section (Only one BR album? Bah!).
