I disagree fully,
99 cents is super cheap for one cutt considering the cost of actually recording and 18 bucks isn't a total rip off for a CD. Making a semi-pro album can easily cost $10,000 to record. (actualy pressing the CD 1000 times will cost about $1400) Making a a full blown CD can easily cost $100,000. If I've got a CD that sells for about $10 after shipping and promoting I can get $6. That means that after selling 1000 CD's I'd still be down about $4,000. If it goes for $18 then I'd make about $4,000 or $4 per CD. This is all considering I don't realy promote the album and I'm not using a record lable. That seems pretty fair considering how hard it is to sell 1000 CD's to people who buy "5 CD's a year". If you want people to have the chance to make great album's you've got to shell out a little cash.
