Amazon isn't the best place to determine track
listings. Discogs is solid but someone has to put that
disc in the database. I know many newer smooth jazz
titles, 50's jazz reissues, and cdbaby artists that
are not in the Discogs database. Just released titles
and compilations are not in there for weeks or more.

It's a shame but the lack of sealed cds in a store for
purchase is a byproduct of not enforcing copyright law
back in the late 90's with Napster and file sharing.
The false nostalgia of plastic records (vinyl) has
just ruined collecting for those who already replaced
worn out styrene 45's and unspooled tapes.

Walmart has CDs but they are more focused on Blu Rays and 4Ks. Target near me does not even have CDs anymore.

As for Best Buy, most dont carry new CD's. FYE is the only place I know that will have the new CD releases here...

There still are new releases from time to time that have Target Exclusive CD versions with extra tracks. I would think every Target would have those available for a short period of time (even in small quantities).

Every time I come into my Target store their CD section is non-existent. I asked the store manager and he said it was a decision to eliminate CD's entirely since they were not selling...

What city are you in again? In L.A., all the Targets I've been in have a CD section; one near me is fairly decent size-wise, all things being relative.

One of the main problems in the last few years is that huge hits like Old Town Road dont even appear on CD anymore (the original not the remix with Billy). I had to search to find Lil Nas and his released album digitally, there was no CD distribution of it.


You should change your username to HipHopArchivist. :P

Walmarts around here have a handful of CDs, mostly
compilations like NOW, etc., an OK selection of DVDs,
about 50/50 between movies and tv show season sets, and a
LOT of video games. Don't know about blueray or
4K...don't have a player for either so they're not
something I'd browse.
Nearest Target or Best Buy is a 2 hour drive away, have
no idea where there'd be a Fye.

I thought about Top40Archivist but Ed took the Top 40 name before I got here...

FYE is nice but it can't last too much longer. It diversified into all sorts of stuff to sell that includes cds and dvd/blu rays but I go there for very few discs anymore. Honest truth is that Discogs/Amazon/Ebay have more choices and more available that most of us here seek.
