Bronco 17,194 Posted March 17, 2025 Share Posted March 17, 2025 I agree with everything except the price changes. That's incredibly anti-consumer and is an unneccessary inflationary act. Everything else either targets scams (like that rapper who had albums shipped to random houses just to make them count lol) or target anti-consumer activities by record labels that deliberately exploit fans. The only people who will benefit from the new minimum pricing (at a time when vinyls are already 50 to 100% more expensive at retail price than they were pre-COVID vinyl craze). It will only hurt consumers and indie acts. The gays know how to party Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
