So our good old friends at the RIAA are spreading some more FUD that we as consumers are lucky that CD's are so cheap now.  Apparently they think that as time goes on, items get more expensive (inflation I can understand), and technological advances that make things cheaper to manufacture do not exist!

I remember a time when it was justified for CD's to be twice the price of a vinyl album, because the red lasers to create these wonders were uber expensive.  Heck I remember the original CD's being so strong and resistant that they would barely scratch.  Now with red laser burners costing under 30 bux to us consumers, really how expensive is it to create a CD?  We know just how little the artists actually get from this cartel, why hasn't anyone invoked RICO on these bastards yet?

Have a good laugh at their expense.  But remember, most of the US congress is in their pockets, and they are coming to your country as well!  Call your congress rep let them know about this crap!  I did, and he was clueless about it all, but at least he was willing to listen.  The more we can educate our reps, the better chance we have of them getting a stronger foothold.
