    Hi
    I live in iran and I want to buy music albums from online stores.
    These options are important to me:
    1. Large music archive includes audiophile albums (chesky & ...)
    2. good service in posting albums (fast & secure)
    3. It's sales center be near my country

    Please recommend me a good online store
    Thanks

    They sell everything, but be carefull, some disks they give you a few weeks delivery time, and then take forever, I buy in stock, or from subsidiaries...

    for cd's I'd reccomend sticking with Amazon. I use them almost exclusively these days.

    nb there is no E on the end of their website.. www.amazon.com or www.amazon.co.uk

    This does not meet your first criterion very well, but I recommend that you buy only the bits (i.e., download) from a good site like www.emusic.com

    you are right but my friend want to have albums.
    I think burning even ISO files from music albums on CD's will reduce quality.

    I second CD WOW for newer CD's - cheap, and very quick delivery (from Hong Kong). Never had any problem with them.

    wow tend to have very few titles other than MOre mainstream items I've found. I think they've recently added a wearhouse feature or something which is meant to offer MOre stock.

    I tend to use ebay, amazon (also their market place), play and cd-wow. I think play have also added a market place recently, but I've only ever used their actual store.
