Digital download stores
I found this about digital shops... I've been looking for a list like this for a long time and thought everyone would be interested.
I added stompy and zipdj cause those are the sites I use. I'm sure there are more as well...
www.Beatport.com
Specialized: general
Comments: Full flash, not very easy to navigate and slow dl speed during rush hours. The hidden tax fees system is very annoying but still they are the best 0-time distributor on the internet. Their back catalogue is also the largest on the market.
www.Junodownload.com
Specialized: general
Comments: Their mail support sucks big time. Great download speed and good prices. Some exclusive oldies can be found there too in excellent prices (e.g 3$ for a mixed compilation)
www.traxsource.com
Specialized: soulful, deep
Comments: Very good prices and awesome support but there are far too many labels (if not genres) missing from their catalogue. Good site for the us style house lovers.
www.whatpeopleplay.com
Specialized: techno, minimal
Comments: New store, evolved really fast and looks good. Excellent back catalogue for techno releases and superb navigation.
www.audiojelly.com
Download speed: 5/10
Specialized: trance
Comments: Great store for trance lovers, fast and user friendly.
www.boomkat.com
Specialized: electronica
Comments: Non-mainstream store, specialized on discovering new artists and sounds. You can broad your EDM knowledge simply by following their weekly recommendations. The no-paypal policy is a bit annoying though
www.dancetracksdigital.com
Specialized: general content
Comments: Excellent new store (check it out!) with amazing prices. Most albums, old and new are at 10$, no hidden fees. Still they are missing a lot of labels and they do not accept paypal (yet). Their mail support is beyond amazing.

www.zipdj.com
