New CD's that you have gotten recently

Simon - I think the point was if you bought directly from the label it would make the label and band more of a profit, than buying it from Amazon.
These labels sell wholesale to such distributors, so when you buy from them, they make less profit.

So, in the end, while you are still helping the band and label, you are cutting into their razor thin profits buy purchasing from a third party.

I know that. And sometimes I do, but if there are multiple releases I want from various labels, etc. it's just easier to purchase that way. I hate having multiple shipments.

I still find it funny that Bob is going off on me, yet he does the same thing sometimes.

I am just yanking your chain. Dont you realize that the more we fight on here the more people come to read it.
 
Plus, let's be honest. I'm just being a cheapass, which is something you should relate to Mr. Jason.

Hey, I wasn't the one knocking you for it.
i was just explaining Bob's point in how ordering from a third party has less of a benefit to the band or label.

Once Best Buy started lowering their prices, I have purchased more from them. I mean I got the new Helloween for 9.99 and the new VoiVod for 7.99. I too would go where it is cheapest. I purchased the new Manilla Road from someone off eBay and got it cheaper than if I purchased direct from the label (and I got it a lot sooner than most people I know).

Most importantly, ANY new purchase of a CD helps!
