- VeganG, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3How do you sue for something being too expensive? Doesn't a company have the right to sell something for whatever cost they want? No one's being forced to buy it. That's how competition and capitalism works.
- nodnarb24, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3The problem is that the pricing scheme doesn't allow for competition. If the large record companies work in collusion, they can artificially set prices high. If they are all working together, there is no other price you can pay except for the high price. They operate like a cartel, similar to OPEC. The only alternatives to not paying the high prices is to either stop paying for music, pirating it, or support small independent labels.
- format, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2About time, some legal d/l prices are way too high as it is.
- Drizzit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2me!
But seriously Napster, Amazon, Emusic, iTunes all offer songs for 99c per download. The only company that moves from that norm is Walmart with 88c. And they only got that concession after threatening to pull their cd sales. For the music industry Walmart is more than 50% of their sales IIRC. For walmart cd sales are less than 1% of their gross revenues. - klacour, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1who's going to mention www.allofmp3.com first?
- carpespasm, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2yeah, day after cinco de mayo, everyone is still a little hung over. kinda hard to do the hand eye coordination required to hit "digg it"
- nickwebb, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2Here's another comment, to validate the validity of the articles placement on the homepage. Whee! /sarcasm
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -6/+3Everyone is sleeping, shhhhhhhhhhhh it's saturday.
- HoldenDapen0r, on 10/12/2007, -16/+0I agree, it is just ridiculous
- Jonny5alive, on 10/12/2007, -19/+2How does an article with no comments get to the front page after getting only 25 diggs in over 16 hours.
