While my experience with many online CD sellers has been less than perfect
(as stated in a previous post), it is usually not any worse than trying
to deal with retailers who neither know about, care, nor carry classical
music.

This may work if you live in London, San Francisco or NYC, but to try and
find a decent source for CDs within 75 miles of Modesto, CA...
In the last three years I have probably bought 2000 CDs from online
sources. Had I been restricted to what was available locally, that
number would probably have been less than 100.
