I'm sure everyone knows by now of the ludicrous deal YesAsia's having---free shipping on orders over $25.

On top of that, they have ridiculously low-priced "Korean" version soundtracks (we're talking 10 bucks for any anime!).  Are these legit?  And if they are, are they even worth buying, because how could the composer make ANY money off of that?

Even though their website is horrible...you can't search within Japanese soundtracks...they have an AMAZING selection (the Michigan soundtrack!), and most prices are 20-30 bucks.  I'm not sure why I'm hawking their merchandise, but there just has to be a catch somewhere.

There are some record companies who do make official "Asian" (read: Asia outside of Japan) releases. Avex is one of them. I have at least one such Final Fantasy CD. I'd be inclined to think the Korean releases of pop stars are legit, but anime CDs, ehhh, I'd be really careful with those.

And yeah, sometimes YesAsia's search engine stinks...
