I use Windows medial player (on my Macintosh) along with QuickTime to review music I'm interested in buying.
While searching through LP's or tapes at Audiogon and Ebay, I'll have another browser page open at AMG and the artist located via their search.
I read the reviews to see how the album rates, when it was released, who played on each cut, and listen to a few free samples.
This procedure has saved me from buying some dogs and prompted me to experiment when I was uncertain.
For those not familiar, here's a link:
