    They forgot to mention that, by the looks of it. Oh well, I was sneezing while reading the article so it doesn't matter much.

    Haha. Never mind the other stupid stuff too.

    Kind of like Air Canada's taxes on tickets. I swear there's a "Buy Robbie Milton A New Sailboat Cause The One He Has Isn't Big Enough" tax :ermm:

    It all makes sense to me.
    Am I overlooking something?
    I don't really get what's so abnormal about it.

    The reason CDs cost money is because of recording costs, music videos, and promotional things.
