Foreign Mp3 Music
      #357936 - Tue Jul 17 2007 05:11 PM

I currently use Virgin and HMV for buying my Mp3 music (Recommend virgin the most).
But how do I go about buying from overseas?
I like a lot of Spanish songs but cannot buy them in UK stores so must go further afield. (It is very useful when learning another language)

Could anyone point me to estores like Virgin and HMV that are overseas?
Stores in Spain or South America for example

Thanks

Thanks Mouse.
Unfortunately there is a very limited of Spanish things on there. What they have there is pretty much the same as most UK based stores which tend to be really cheesy things or old 70's 80's stuff.

What I am after is things from the likes of the Spanish charts or South American charts rather than the general "Spanish Classics" or "Salsa" Stuff.

I think music stores based in the countries would be better.

Thanks anyway though.

Have you purchased any of this type of music before?

Which type? the ones in the HMV page or the stuff "from abroad"?

The Stuff from abroad I bought a few times while out there.

I tried the HMV style "World music" but they were pretty much what I mentioned in my above post.

The type of music you are after, a good shot is to find out who the record labels are and see if they have a website, or look at the artists site, usually they have shops to buy music from and some these official sites link to fansites or forums, where you can discuss this further.

This is how I started purchasing music online.
