Alternatives to purchasing from the South American river?

Posted by: ChrisH on 20 October 2018

Ive become increasingly irritated with Amazon's dominance and failure to pay a proper amount of tax in the UK but find it difficult to find alternatives on line that I want to support, apart from buying direct from record labels / bands. This is difficult for older recordings , and Im not happy about paying more money than a physical copy for a digital download of a CD quality album (I guess most of the albums I look at do not have hi-res options).

I do support my nearest record store when I can, but it is a schlepp to get to and we dont have a record store in my nearest town.

Where do you buy from if you are buying online, and does anyone have any good alternatives to Amazon?

Hmmn.....not sure that re-assures me with their customer support recently 

 

I would agree with you there. Out of about 17 discs I have bought offf them within the last month. I think 6 were unplayable. Shocking but they do sell cheap discs.
