1. I still buy CDs and rub two sticks together for fire...
...but I will furnish whatever links I can find. Here are some to start with, mostly for jumping-off points, as they contain many links. I haven't really done comparison shopping.

http://www.classical.net/

http://www.classical.com/

http://www.classicsonline.com/

http://www.emusic.com/genre/279.html

Remember to check the classical music label websites, too. Below you'll find Chandos and Deutsche Grammophon.

I'm sure you're aware that Amazon, known for books, music, DVDs, and almost everything else at this point, also offers MP3 downloads of classical music. I seem to recall it runs less than a dollar (U.S.) per track.

3. I was looking up something on a British website...
...specifically the one for Harry Christophers and the Sixteen, and they had a selection of recommended links as well. Again, I have no particular opinion on these, but add this to your bookmarks:

4. I use i-tunes.
I love it because I can choose from a variety of performances. I teach piano lessons too, and my students can download performances of pieces they're studying, which they love!
