    Hello,

    I was wondering where is the best place to buy online databases. I am particularly looking for books, cds and dvds.

    Thanks,

    Andrew

    I think no one will give due to security. You can try to purchase a whole website at flippa.

    Probably nowhere, but not due to security. Most companies consider data to be a trade secret and won't give or sell it to anyone.

    On second thought, the publishers or larger retailers may provide data in a form that's easy to import into a database. Check with Amazon, Capitol Records, Sony, etc.

    Western Digital (doesn't sound as if he's discovered that he should buy Seagate) must love him. :)
