Groove - The online arm of this Chicago record store has a veeeeerrrry
tempting selection of vinyl and a decent selection of CDs. |

Rough
Trade - Legendary London record store with branches in the Brick
Lane and Notting Hill areas. The store also does mailorder. |
Sister
Ray - London record store.
Music
and Video Exchange - Fantastic London record store with numerous branches.
Tokyo
Record Hunting Service - As it bills itself, "used CDs for cheap
from Tokyo, Japan." Keep in mind that since new Japanese CDs are ridiculously
expensive, used ones cost only slightly less than a new disc in the
U.S. But the selection (Shibuya-kei) is pretty good, and for Japanese
releases the prices are very attractive. |

- Formerly AsiaCD.com, YesAsia has a music section that offers a selection
of CDs by Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, and Korean artists. In addition
to Japanese CD pressings, it also offers CDs intended for the "overseas"
(i.e., Asian overseas) market, which are substantially cheaper than
those intended for the Japanese market. It also has VCDs, a low-cost
video format popular in Taiwan and Hong Kong that plays both in CD-ROM
drives and in DVD players. |
