been through it before, the manufactured cost of a record/CD is not the
only cost to a record company. Yeah major labels suck and the
dispursement of profit is ridicously, but that's not my fault and there's
so much info out their these days that I can't feel sorry for anyone
finding themselves in a bad deal. People regularly pay $100 for a pair of
shoes with no problems, what do you think the real cost of those is.
Boycott Nike for not giving their shoes away! Bloody mafia those shoe
companies I tell ya.
