I've read that the RIAA will start to lower the price of cd's to eliminate the downloading percentage. I've also read it will go as low as $6......will this affect your view on downloadind vs. purchasing?
is $6 low enough?

they should make the mainstream CDs $6 and the independent ones $3... im still gonna download tho cuz you can get advanced shit and all that jazz. also, i as watching THE WRAP on MTV2 and they were talking about how bands may start putting out a 4 song Ep every few months, instead of waiting for a full album every 1-3 years. i like that idea, what are your opinions?

CDs cost wayyy too much as it is. 6 bucks is the perfect price, in my opinion.

If CD"s were 6 bucks, I'd never really download... I like the idea of EP's too, throwing them in between albums and stuff... not like a 3 or 4 song EP, though, like a 7 song Vaya-length one. The EP is a lost art now... heard TMV were coming out with one early next year, though, that'll be great.

you lucky lucky people...there was an announcement that Universal was going to start lowering it's CD's to £8 (which is actually pretty good...not that i like eminem though...) no, apologies for the lack of converting-english-to-american skills, but £8 is $18 canadian...i'm guessing that that's more than $6 american...hence the 'you lucky lucky people'. in response to the EP dealy...that's a great idea! that means we'd hear more of the bands we love! BRING BACK 'ONE MINUITE SILENCE!'

if you are talking about euros (hope i spelled that right)..i think its about $10 here. But i don't think thats right if canada is $18 for 8 euros, because their money is only about $3 more then ours here in the US. And i doubt that universal is going to lower their prices by $10.

It would be really awsome tho if they did that. I would deffinitally buy more, because that way you know that you have the real songs. And you get pictures and what not.

finance.yahoo.com/m3?u here's a currency converter, it's saved my ass on unsober nights when I'm window shopping at W.A.S.T.E. on the Radiohead site.
