I suspect that most or all of the people reading this page are aware of Bookfinder (http://www.bookfinder.com), which is a "meta-search engine" for used books. That is, you enter a search on Bookfinder, and it sends out requests to dozens of used book services, including individual stores like Barnes and Noble (http://www.bn.com) or Powells (http://www.powells.com), consolidators like Advanced Book Exchange (http://www.abebooks.com), and person-to-person sale sites like eBay (http://www.ebay.com) and Half (http://www.half.com). Bookfinder is a near-miracle, an indispensible tool for a book addict like me.

I'm wondering, though, if there are similar services for music CDs and for DVDs. Any suggestions, anyone?

The closest I've run across is GEMM (http://gemm.com/), but I think sellers have to register on the site rather than it just searching other sites automatically. They do have a lot of sellers, though.

I have a vague recollection of some sort of comparison shopper site for CDs a while ago that shut down. Maybe the RIAA went after them... who knows.
