Ahhhh, I can spend HOURS here browsing and searching for new old/used music! It's a great way to recycle your old stuff and get a buck or two for it! Then, you can spend the next few hours finding the perfect new album/cd to buy! Not only do they have music but movies too! And the good kind! I was able to find an obscure DVD here that someone had been looking for for a while! Score!!

This is the greatest music store I've ever been in.  There's an unbelievable selection of music here - you can find just about anything, even the most obscure local band.  I've never walked out of Amoeba empty handed.

They also have tons of free live shows here - I saw Spoon here for free a little while back - a band that sells out some fairly big venues.  Amoeba is a San Francisco landmark.  I hope it survives the digitalization of music.

Get anything you want in this place. Some used cd's are as little as a dollar, and I'm not talking about singles from some nobody, they've got John Cougar Mellencamp cd's for a dollar, with scratches on the front but guaranteed to play. You walk in and it's basically one giant room, sort of flee marketish but organized.
