I think most people buy from them..on my computer, no matter which Israeli artist i type in google i get their site first..so i do think this is the most popular site to buy..but of course with every site you have people where something went wrong and ended up with a bad experience..

I had the same experience with israel-music.com. I had to dispute the charge with my credit card company...interestingly, the next day I received an e-mail that my order was being shipped. That was 2 weeks ago and I still haven't seen the order.

Hmm if i were you i would send them another email! Perhaps they have those trackingnumbers or however you call them, so you can see where your package is right now..and hey..perhaps they didnt even send it yet! I would surelely send another email..after 2 weeks not receiving anything i think you shown enough patience..

for magogami: the websites that sell israeli albums are: www.stmus.com, www.orlysbookstore.com, www.eshop-israel.com, www.sifrutake.com, www.judaicawebstore.com, and www.israel-music.com, be careful with www.israel-music.com, their customer service is horrible, and although they stay an item is in stock, it can take for ever for them to ship it to you,but, they charge your credit card the minute you order the item. Sometimes it takes disputing the charge with your credit card company to get them to either ship the item, or give you a refund. there is also www.muiscaneto.com, their site is in hebrew, but, if you send them an e-mail of what you want, they will ship it to you.

Thanks! Some of those sites have cheaper prices than israel-music.com so whether or not they are good, I probably wouldn't buy from them.

If you are going to buy albums from other sites than israel-music, let us know how it went and what your experience is with them, im sure the other visitors of this forum will appreciate this a lot, cause i think its the most asked question of people coming here!

A while ago I asked if any one knew of any sites similar to itunes, that sold Israeli music, either by the album or by the song. Chosen had suggested http://www.songs.co.il. I looked at that site, but, had trouble navigating the site with very, very, very limited Hebrew knowledge.

After searching the internet I came across this site: http://www.imusic.co.il.
It was easy to use, even with limited Hebrew knowledge. Also, the songs have an audio bit rate of 320 kbps, compared to 192 kbps from a store bought CD. If you just buy an idividual song, you don't get the cover art, but, if you buy the whole album, you get the cover art. Like itunes, it's cheaper to buy the whole album, and less expensive then buying the CD from a store. And if you live in the US, you don't have to worry about international shipping. Also, it benefits the artists, which downloading from emule does not.
