@candorny"For prices to change, there need only be a shift in ONE of the two parts."DUDE. Actually, for prices to change all the CEO has to do is make a phone call, DUDE. They can do whatever they want with the prices, DUDE. The market will react, DUDE. And the market is going to react negatively when they are increasing prices with no reason other than greed, DUDE. Because we all know that money isn't going to the artists, DUDE.In case you haven't noticed, more and more markets are becoming digital. Music was one of the first to go - dragging the RIAA along with it, kicking and screaming. They are trying to assimilate themselves now, but they just don't get it, still. They are still trying to treat digital music like a PHYSICAL commodity. It is not, obviously. Digital commodities do not adhere to the same rules as other commodities effected by supply and demand, like oil. But the RIAA would have you believe so. So tell me, what is warranting this price increase, DUDE?Ask your economics teacher. Or your mom. They might be able to put it in terms you can comprehend. DUDE.
