J&R Music World has been king ever since the two Towers closed their doors.... I always prefered J&R to Virgin which is no longer around.

Also, quite a few Barnes & Nobles still have a decent collection of CDs.......but J&R is king as of this date.

In addition to Other Music and the addictive J&R there are a few shops near Thompson Street (ie. Generations Records) and Williamsburgh BK has quite a few.

right ! I had forgotten about J&R, probably because that store is so far from me. Will have to check Other Music. Thanks guys.

The east village and lower east side are still full of great music stores, what are your genres of choice and I will narrow it down for you.

Hi - great excuse to visit the EV, cd shopping !

I listen and enjoy most genres even though because of time constraints I tend to concentrate most on clAssical and opera. I will however also enjoy Daft Punk, Queens of the SA, or Black EP type of things, from time to time.

So, I Am pretty easy and would gladly hear whatever you recommend (that's wrt to music stores)!

While I won't deny that J&R still has one of the best availabilities of CDs in NYC, it's not nearly what it used to be, especially when it comes to Classical and Jazz.

....I LIVE in the east village, yet I have to admit I haven't been to most of them. If I like rock/alternative, where should I look?

I was just in NYC and did a CRAPLOAD of CD and vinyl shopping. I went to Bleecker Street Records and Rebel Rebel. Oh yes, and the always fabulous J&R!
