Just wondering what sites you use to buy acapellas. Beatport's selection isn't so hot, so I'm curious if they're other sites out there which specialize in DJ Tools/acapellas. If such sites carried acapella's of famous/recent songs, that'd be great too.

A lot of times acapellas are not sold directly (for big name stuff) but are licensed by producers directly working with the artists management to obtain the rights to use it. Although, there are exceptions to this rule.
The acapella of Silence was released as a b-side to some record I think, and that helped in the dozens of remixes of that song. Of course you still have to deal with licensing issues even in that case.

Many years ago I sometime went to the smallest and funniest record shop of Europe, okay, probably Belgium. Disckid in Rekem (Lanaken).
Don't know if it still exists, but all DJ's in the Neighbourhood got there records from him. He had good connections and also acapella's (on cd-r).
Maybe you can call him to ask.
Vinyls till the roof.... He must be like 50 years now.
