If a company thinks they can get a way with charging you for something as much as they can then they will. Why shouldn't they? If the recording industry charges too much for a CD, then don't buy it. If you feel putting 500 songs on your iPod at $1 a pop is too much then don't do it. The market will work itself out. The greatest power that we, as a consumer, have is the power to NOT consume.
