What is your go-to online place to buy physical medium of music? And why?

The brunt of the question is pretty much covered in the title, but just curious where most people are buying any physical medium of music (vinyl, cassette, 8-track, etc.) online.

Personally, I've probably only bought a couple of items online. I mostly patronize my local independent record stores but, obviously, the selection of music available online is essentially infinite, so I'd like to start utilizing it more.

Thanks!

I buy CD's from the artists website. I have found them all to be easy to deal with. The price isn't the lowest but at least the artists get the money. And occasionally you might get an autographed copy.

I also like Amazon and direct from mobile fidelity.

CDs--Amazon

LPs--Half Price Books

Why?  I'm a cheapskate

@tostadosunidos no problem with that. :-)

I used to love Half Price Books when I lived in Pittsburgh. Unfortunately, they don't have any in South Carolina, where I live now.

I agree that I've never been satisfied with a used Lp, regardless of the sellers rating of it. For hard to find CDs and scads, dicogs.com and EBay.
