How do I purchase an actual cd album?

Posted: Fri Sep 02, 2011 11:42 am

Hi guys I am facing a dilemma. I want to purchase a physical cd album but all the links I get are for .mp3 downloads. This is a present for a good friend so I would appreciate the retail packaging as I'm sure they would, any ideas what search terms I can try? I've tried ...buy cd but still get download links.

The album I am trying to get is "Mark Wirtz & Mood Mosaic - Mr Boom Boom The Colinio Masters.

If anybody could point me in the right direction please?

You could always print the covers to make it look more expensive ....

Well it is vinyl, vinyl is usually worth alot more than a cd, though unless its really rare thats still quite a bit - ive never heard of it, is it rare?

I did that already angel mate, except for the covers. He just got a memorex cd with some felt tip writing on it! Laughing

He was still over the moon with it and as he has a printer he said he'd make his own covers (it's for the jukebox) Don't ask me how legal that is, but seeing as I paid for it I wouldn't think it's breaking any uk laws?

it is ileagal, not that that will stop him i wouldn't have thought.

a friend of mine recently passed away and his mother wanted some obscure song played in the crem, but couldn't find it anywhere to buy.
i managed to find it and downloaded it. when she handed it to the crem, they said it was illeagal for them to play it due to copyright.

And yet these places were always willing to play mix tapes of music when tapes were in fashion, just as "illegal"... Bloody ridiculous, especially with music you literally cannot find in a legal way...

One way though is to make one of those collage type home movies of a person with the song in the background... still illegal, but do they complain so hard about that..?
