Where do you buy CDs?

Jones37 · 04-24-2010, 11:35 AM

Do any of you buy CDs online? I live in a small city, so there's not a lot of places to get music. Occasionally, I buy CDs off of iTunes, but I like to have the physical copy of the CD. There's a site called "Glyde" that have cheap CDs sometimes. Sometimes amazon. Where do you all get CDs from?

I don't buy online. Most of the time I go to CD Plus, which is just a small Canadian chain. They're great for having local/Canadian music. If they don't have what I'm looking for, it's HMV.

Local shops: Easy Street, Sonic Boom, Everyday Music, few others on occasion

Online: Amazon Marketplace, Wherehouse.com, Half.com, eBay, Discogs.com, individual artist/label websites

Mostly online (mostly through iTunes, or through the artist's personal site if they are not as known), because it works out cheaper and more economical, but occasionally I will buy them from stores like JB Hi-Fi.

I buy from Amazon or the local independent The Electric Fetus.

The words CD and iTunes just don't compute when referring to purchasing.

Yeah, I know. But when the original poster says "Occasionally, I buy CDs off of iTunes, but I like to have the physical copy of the CD" I'm guessing he meant albums/ music in general so I just went with it!

Yeah I noticed he was a bit contradictory himself.
