Used CDs on the Web?
from the is-it-coming? dept
I'm not quite sure where this article came from, but it is worth reading. As an avid music collector, I spend a ton of time in used record stores looking for music. I've noticed that while I tend not to shop in brick-and-mortar stores for books very often any more, I almost never buy music online, because I have better luck finding good music used in stores at cheaper prices. Here's a column that looks at why a used CD marketplace hasn't taken off online.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
