Wow good to see so many people into Japanese music! Where do you guys get all your inofmration? If you are living in the states or whatever, can you easily purchase Japanese music and keep up with the scene?

Where do you guys get your information?

well, I live in Massachusetts, and there are absolutely like no stores that I know of that sell Jmusic besides Tokyo Kid in Cambridge (Harvard Square), Borders (i got my larku Smile cd there ^^) and sometimes at Suncoast. I anybody knows anymore, that Pm me!

 

[xToshiya1279x]

Oooh, and I have a new list ^^

Wow your lucky. Thats WAY more then you can get here were i live in MD (might be some, just not in my area!!) I guess if you want anime music you can go to Suncoast but as for the borders around here, it took me long enough to find Hiki's english release of Exodus (bought it for a friend) and I have looked in all of them and never found Smile.... It really sucks around here so i stick to online sites like CDJapan, J-xyz, JpopHouse, and YesAsia. They have a pretty good supply if you don't mind shipping costs and, often, a rather long wait for the product.

BTW, I like your new list, Toshiya-san! ^-^
