As much as I would like to buy the CDs for some of my favourite soundtracks, I
don't have a CD drive on my laptop and also I would be ripping the music off
the cd anyway.

Are there any legal sites where I can download soundtracks for shows I like,
rather than purchasing the physical media?

In particular, I'm looking for the 'Your lie in April' OST, but I would like
to know in general where I could go for this sort of thing

Where can I purchase anime soundtracks for download?


Amazon Japan has the Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso soundtrack available for
download: ["Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso ORIGINAL SONG &
SOUNDTRACK"](http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E5%9B%9B%E6%9C%88%E3%81%AF%E5%90%9B%E3%81%AE%E5%98%98-ORIGINAL-
SONG-SOUNDTRACK-
TV%E3%82%B5%E3%83%B3%E3%83%88%E3%83%A9/dp/B00PB88GH0/ref=sr_1_2?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1423671231&sr=1-2&keywords=%E5%9B%9B%E6%9C%88%E3%81%AF%E5%90%9B%E3%81%AE%E5%98%98).
It's an MP3 download (so not lossless, unfortunately). The whole OST is 3000
JPY (~25 USD), or you can buy individual songs (but this quickly becomes more
expensive than just buying the album).

The OST does not appear to be available (losslessly) on any of the sites
linked in [mivilar's
comment](https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/19288/where-can-i-purchase-
anime-soundtracks-for-download#comment24793_19288), but the Ongakuchou
(consisting of the classical pieces from the show) is, at mora: ["Shigatsu wa
Kimi no Uso - Boku to Kimi no
Ongakuchou"](http://mora.jp/package/43000001/4988010065508/). I've never used
mora, but it appears they have a FLAC version of the album available for 3200
JPY, as well as [a 320kbps AAC
version](http://mora.jp/package/43000001/4988010065706/) available for 2100
JPY.

Amazon Japan has a setting somewhere for translating the UI (but not product
descriptions and so forth) into English, but I'm not seeing anything similar
on mora, so you may want to find a buddy who knows Japanese and/or bumble your
way through Google Translate.
