I wouldn't mind paying less for my Warp shit, or anything at all really. With
the amount of records I buy, that little dollar or two would add up to $100
pretty fast. Retail price for domestic CD's are cheaper in the US than
anywhere in the world, especially England and Japan, which is why the imports
from there seem expensive, and why it's ALWAYS good to see something you want
come out domestically. US'ers also spend (per capita) far less on recorded
media than people in most other "developed" countries, and I believe 1/2 that
of what the English spend.
I paid $26.99 for Trainer, which was way too much, but Virgin is near my house
and I saw it there and couldn't wait. It probably would have been 19.99 there
if it was domestic.
I would have saved $7.
