CD Prices

#

Started by opalmantra

Hmm, let me know: What do you think is a reasonable price for a new full length CD? I have my own maximum that I don’t pay more than 15-16 EURO (Yes, we better get used to it). I think 11-13 EURO should be standard. But what I would really like to see is a sort of direct contribution to the Artist. I mean I’m gonna buy Shameless, anyway so why not pay in advance for recording etc…This way record companies know what to expect.

500BEF/25 guilders seems to me a good price (no fucking idea how many Euros that is exactly), it’s doable if you look at the metal distros such as Hammerheart in Holland that sell cd’s at this price.

Unfortunately things aren’t the way they should be!

I think £12 is reasonable, but the record companies don’t agree with me

Unless I’m buying something rare I don’t often spend more than £10 for an album. You just got to know where to shop, hmv and virgin are a no, I’d rather buy online or from independent shops.

The Euro in theory is a good idea but in practice fucking sucks.

15 quid I think is okay but any more than it is a definate rip off. Nothing worse than handing over 20 and getting back change in coins - I fucking hate that! Gimme back a fiver, ya bastards!!

I think for a full-length cd it should be about NLG25/BEF500/EUR12/USD10/UKP8 (very rough currency conversions).
Right now it seems to become about twice that amount in the regular shops, although it’s usually not too hard to get a cd for under NLG40.
Singles should be about NLG10/BEF200/EUR4.5/USD4/UKP3
all formats the same, CD, vinyl and MD, and DVDs can be more.
