Just wondering for those that buy CD's & DVD's online where do you usually go to purchase your stuff? I'm curious if I have been missing out on any good places to order from. I usually buy my stuff from the following:

Tower
Amazon
Newbury Comics
Hydra Head Shop
Relapse Records
Half.com

Oh wait, you said buy...
I only buy my CDs in stores...or sometimes from a record label's website.

amazon and half
sometimes ebay

BUY!!! . . .

In no order:

discogs.com (been a member there for 8 years now (wow))
amazon.com
copint.com
interpunk.com

and of course directly from band web sites and such.

Oh, sometimes you can find rare stuff at GEMM.com if you are looking for it, but buy at your own risk, i've had mixed success with GEMM.

fast shipping, cheap new releases, good prices on select anime

I often use deepdiscount.com (used to be deepdiscountdvd.com but now they carry cd's & books). Low prices & shipping is free (no minimum, but it takes a week or so). I have used them and never had a problem. They usually get in the new Toho re-releases for cheap.

amazon
boomkat
bleep

be downloading a whole bunch at demonoid.com but you need an invite to use it...

I haven't bought a CD in years. I just download anything that catches my eye.
I guess that's payback for the early 90s when I tended to take chances and buy stuff without knowing what the album sounded like.

Used to buy DVDs, but why bother? Even if you buy used (usually half or more off retail) I can never justify it these days.
Just get a netflix account and rent them. Or rent and rip if you really need a copy.

There is dvdpricesearch if you want to compare pricing:

i havent been buying a lot of cds or movies lately. when i buy music, its usually through itunes, so i dont have to store the physical disc and case and all that. i import everything onto my computer that i buy anyway. i still do pick up a physical copy of some of my favorites, getting close to having a copy of all the (reasonably available) boredoms releases!

when i do buy a cd though, i usually go to amoeba or aquarius here in s.f.

i think ive bought one dvd in the last year, also from amoeba.

new music and dvds pretty much exclusively on Amazon. The combination of Amazon Prime free 2-day shipping and their lower prices in general is almost impossible to beat. Used i usually buy on ebay or half.com.

I have bought CDs from secondspin.com before when they have coupons (once in a while they have 25% off)
If you don't mind used items, then you can sometimes find some good stuff.
I actually picked up some Blu-Rays from them once too, a few even arrived unopened, so that was cool.
Shipping is not free but it is pretty cheap. Again, search for a coupon, they usually have free shipping available if you spend a certain amount.
They ship media mail so it could take a little while, I think they ship from CA, so if you are on or near the west coast it usually isn't too bad
