Shibuya has copious music shopping opportunities, but expect some sticker shock as Japanese CDs often clock in at ¥3000+; imports are usually cheaper! In addition to the superstores below, also check out the miniature alternative ghetto Jinnan 11 and nearby, just past Tokyu Hands, full of tiny specialist record shops.
