Their price structure has forced me to buy a lot of used CDs

As I recall the RIAA tried to outlaw that at one time as well.

Oh yes, I remember well Garth Brooks (a superstar one time, remember?) grandstanding and ordering his record company, as if he could do that, not to deliver his overpriced CD's to stores that also carries used merchandise. That lasted oh, about a month!
