They also sell tickets and have photography services. My favorite departments are music and books which seem to be difficult to find in a store today. They have a large music department that includes every genre from around the world. They have both CDs and vinyl. FNAC also has a large assortment of books in many categories. I have had good luck locating items which have been impossible to find from other retailers. Complimentary wi-fi. www.fnac.com & @Fnac

I'd avoid buying any brand name MAC stuff here (tres cher) but found a good workaround and got great advice from staff who were very welcoming and seem to take pride in what they do. Wish Best Buy was like FNAC.

Plan to spend a long time crate digging here. Mostly vinyl with a decent amount of CD inventory in the same genres. Best selection and vibes I've encountered in Paris.

Probably one of the best music stores I have ever been too, Gibert stocks a staggering selection of…read moremusic from France, Africa, Britain, America, and well beyond. Located near St Michel metro, the store is very close to the Latin Quarter as well as the Jardins de Luxembourg. Dealing in more than genres, Gibert has the ability to find you browsing for hours as you move from Reggae to Rock to Avant-Garde to Celtic to pretty much anything else. But it gets even better, as they also stock a lot of very well-priced 2nd-hand music and also deal in hard-to-find music magazines (such as Punk Planet) at very reasonable prices. Worth setting aside an hour or two for during your visit to Paris if you can, Gibert is one place you'll remember fondly long after leaving the city.

I only went there for the VINYLS! They have a box in the…read morefront of the store 0,50 euro any vinyl. The box is updated every few hours. Inside there are about 24 drawers with vinyls but NO order, NO specific category, but they add the new arrivals every few hours. The vinyls have small white labels with the date of entering the store and the price. Inside the store only the PROMO drawer has vinyls at 0,50 euro. The prices of vinyls from the other drawers are from 1 euro to 10 euro (most are over 3 euro), but there are only used vinyls, most of them with classical music (walses, opera, concerts) or french music. I spent few hours today browsing EVERY vinyl and I can say there are few american vinyls, most french or french edition or french music. I was lucky to find Sam Brown "Stop" single and Sandra "Maria Magdalena" single. There is also another section with 45 RPM singles at 1 euro piece. I could see a clerk labeling the fresh-received vinyls with a label gun. He brought the vinyls every hour and put them in the "NEW ARRIVALS" box. The CDs are sealed with some transparent tape and there was a tentative of alphabetical order (you could see some names, letters) but the chaos was the best word to descriebe that area. The plastic bags for the vinyls/books/etc are free :D
