When Evil fights Evil ...

Only the good guys can win. Evil in this case is Wal-Mart -- which I consider an evil organization -- and Evil is also the Record Companies that steal from your wallet while they sue you for your spare change. Seems like Wal-Mart's "everyday low price" mantra is even affecting the music industry. Wal-Mart wishes to sell sub-$10 CDs, but the record companies have always resisted. Last year, Wal-Mart got the record companies to deliver some CDs to their $9.72 program. Wal-Mart liked it. Liked it so much, that they want it for all the CDs they sell. Wal-Mart if now the largest retail peddler of the record companies smut -- selling 1 in 5 of their CDs -- it has clout. Will the record companies concede? Wal-Mart also has a growing online music business ... ah, what sweet entertainment when evil fights evil ...

    Andy,

    Your comments on Wal-Mart are valid. Yet, unfortunately, American Society is largely apathetic and is seemingly only concerned about their current needs, and not give thought to long-term ramifications. Wal-Mart is the supplier, and America is the consumer. America can only blame themselves for any adverse effects brought about long-term by shopping at Wal-Mart. Also sad, Sam Walton, when he was alive, prided himself in selling everything made in America.
    Now that he is gone, looks like pride in American made products is gone!
