Story: Amazon.com implicated in CD-import row
Posted by: Anonymous (Wednesday 7 January 2004, 3:45 PM)
This sounds like The music industry just wants to rip off the british pulic again. If companies like amazon, play.com and cd-wow.com can afford sell the CDs and such good prices and have free delivery and still make money, then doesn't that suggest CDs in this country is just over priced!! Companies like CD-wow have to buy the original CDs, pay the import tax and delivery costs and still make money on selling the CD so cheap. Shops and British based web sites should be able to do the same! Sounds like RIP OFF BRITAIN to me!
Reduce your prices for CDs and increase the penalty for piracy and the problem will reduce as no-one wants a prison sentence for pirating a CD thats cost a few pounds.
