Where are the best record shops? Or great mailorder services? Any specialized shops (only vinyl, only certain styles, etc.)? Where did you buy records in the Web? Did you get good service whereever you bought that stuff? Do they know their shtick?

NO! They don't have ALL cd's, but quite alot. And you just order by filling out all the forms once - from there on you just do one-click ordering. It's brilliant! And you can choose how you want it shipped. For a cheap shipping method you wait about 4 weeks. If you're prepared to pay a little more, you're stuff arrives within a week. They've never buggered things up with me, and I order from them alot.

You gotta add this to your shopping list:
Yodeling Hamsters Set to Top Charts
LONDON (Reuters) - Britain is set to greet the year 2000 with a bunch of
yodeling hamsters at the top of the hit parade.
Forget the re-release of John Lennon's pop classic ''Imagine.'' Forget ``The
Millennium Prayer'' by clean-living Christian rocker Cliff Richard.
It is the Cuban Boys stars of a popular web site -- who have plunged the
British into one of their annual bouts of bad taste and festive lunacy.
Hailed as the world's first virtual hit record, ``The Hamster Song'' was
concocted by the Cuban Boys none of them is Cuban and one is a girl who
first met by e-mail and then concocted a canny Internet campaign to launch
the screechy rodents.
The cult began 18 months ago when Jenny McLaren and her improbably
named brother Ricardo Autobahn sent a tape of their band Spray to a fanzine
run by a pair called Skreen and Blu.
The four then combined to send a demo tape to veteran disc jockey John
Peel, a noted admirer of the offbeat and obscure.
