LOL, it's funny hearing people complain about how expensive cd's are, and how cheap they use to be.
the truth is, right now paying $19 for a cd is cheaper than paying $5 for a cd in 1960. It is called INFLATION!. So when u think buying a $19 cd is too much, just think about in between 1960-1989 and you'll realize the number may of been less, but the actual price value was more.
($5 dollar cd in 1965 would be $35 dollars today)
PS: i read these stats in the Cleveland, Ohio's Plain Dealer, and i have not yet done the math for the stats, i'm just parroting a newspaper, to give the other side of the story from RIAA
