Yeah. They should sell CDs at a cheaper price. It doesn't cost very much for the music companies to make CDs. Even if they dropped the prices a little bit, they would still make money from them. If they were cheaper, we wouldn't waste our time downloading all this music.

It's the same with me. I always have very little money to spend and usually I can only use it for school or lunch money. It takes me months just to save enough to order 1 album. That's why I always try to buy the overseas versions of her releases because they're about half as much as the Japanese ones. Plus shipping varies depending on where you are ordering it from. (YesAsia: $3.00 and up. CDJapan: $10 and up.) Even though I do download mp3s, I try to make an effort to buy the CDs also.
