It's About Time! Universal Music To Lower Suggested Retail Price of CD's!

Universal Music, one of the giants in the music industry, has decided to set the suggested retail price of CD's from $16.98-$18.98 to a new low of $12.98.  This will keep music retailers, such as the ones that charge full retail at the mall (FYE, Camelot Music) to subsequently lower their prices as well.  Also, the large retailers (Best Buy, Target) will now start pricing their CD's around $10.  It's a smart move, especially considering the current state of music sales.  I'm still not sure if I'm going to increase my purchasing or not... for one, Universal is a French-owned company and I'm currently boycotting all French products, and I don't appreciate the witch hunt the industry is attempting against peer-to-peer file sharing.  Anyway... if you're interested, the article is here
