Amazon is as good a source as any for shopping online for world music.

I second the putumayo link! That label has some fantastic world/folk compilations, and there is normally one or tow stand out tracks that enable you to pursue some further listening...One artist I'm paricularly keen on is Cesaria Evora, from Cape Verde. Her stuff is worth checking out.
