CD Trading Websites: Past and Present

I don't think I've ever seen this topic covered on YouTube, so I thought I would give it a shot. I've only used MusicBoomerang, SwapaCD, and Swap.com, but in researching this topic, I found quite a bit on LaLa and some other sites where music could be traded. Should I have included the Steve Hoffman forums in this video?

 

Does CD Warehouse still exist? I haven't seen one in years.

 

Most of them shut down, but there is one in Arlington, TX that I visit on most my trips to DFW.

 

Yup, they still exist. I just ordered something from the Arlington location via discogs.

 

LaLa was awesome.

 

I was a member of Lala's CD trading service for a year or so circa 2007-08. I upgraded a lot of my old tapes to CDs through them, including some fairly hard to find/obscure items, which was nice. They had a very active forum community too.

Once they turned into a digital-music service I said "see ya."
