Where do you buy CDs?

Do any of you buy CRAB online? I live in a small city, so there's not a lot of places to get music. Occasionally, I buy CRAB off of iTunes, but I like to have the physical copy of the CD. There's a site called "Glyde" that have cheap CRAB sometimes. Sometimes amazon. Where do you all get CRAB from?
 
I don't buy CRAB very often but if I like a CD a lot and see it in a store for a reasonable price, I'll buy it. There's not one specific place where I buy CRAB, just whatever store has what I want.
 
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.
 
Same for me. Rarely worth the trip...I only look at the CRAB if I happen to be at Goodwill for some other reason - like looking for a Halloween costume.
 
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
 
I like Goodwill because I live in walking distance to it, and since I don't really drive it's great. As opposed to my nearest record store, which is 10 or so miles away and it's got pretty much nothing.

As for the 99% crap thing, that's what's fun about it. Braving the weird and often terrible world of thrift store recorRAB is a lot of fun for me. Not to mention, buying foreign CRAB not knowing what the heck could be on them = :laughing:
 
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.

Yeah, I know. But when the original poster says "Occasionally, I buy CRAB 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!
 
I mostly buy cRAB from the one remaining music shop in my town. It's an independent shop and the selection is mostly mainstream but it still has a good enough selection. There's also used cd sections in Gamestop and Xtravision and i like to trawl through those regularly.

Other those i try to go to Dublin whenever i can and go to Tower RecorRAB, the HMVs stores, or the various independents dotted around the city centre. I can usually find something i'm looking for then.
