BK> I would be happy to hear any recommendations from others on the list of BK> online record stores that have an accurate stock list! A good BK> selection is a nice bonus, but I value an up-to-date stock list most.
http://www.planetxusa.com is decent. There's an indicator next to each record showing how likely it is to be in stock, and Real Audio samples of just about everything. The site works best in IE (certain things go flaky in Phoenix/Mozilla). My only complaint about them is that they don't seem as personalized as they were a couple years ago. They used to surprise me with random promo records, posters, t-shirts and the like (much as Submerge is known to do), but ever since they went Internet-only there's been less and less of that. I mean, yeah, it's not like I can complain about not getting free swag, but it's definitely one of the things that will keep me going back for more. ------------- Brian "balistic" Prince http://www.bprince.com - art and techno Strokes of Defiance EP . . . soon.
