Listen all, magnatune is a wonderful label, and a wonderful service, but you must be aware that making money is not evil, that charging as much money as you possibly can for a good or service is not evil, and that the day that people stop charging as much money as they can possibly get for a good or service, we are all screwed big time, because the wonderful array of material things, cultural products and life enhancing services we enjoy will begin to dry up, and we will all be living in world that is the equivalent of being in a frowsy little alternative band playing to their friends in a non-hip bar in Hoboken, thinking that the reason we are not popular is because record companies are greedy, not that we suck. Ebay represents a much fairer, much more utopian, much more perfect way of setting prices. As a consumer, my responsibility is to buy whatever I can as cheaply as I can -- which is what I intend to do with magantunes.
