CD Pricing policy



Reading through the recent spate of posts regarding this topic, ("My Art 
is EASILY worth $16" vs. "Cheap music for the workers!"), I'm 
half-reminded of a quote whose source I can't place:

"He's the sort of man who'd rather have nothing than settle for less."

and:

"Fifteen minutes of us is worth any sum of money."--one of the members of 
the Jesus And Mary Chain, responding to criticism regarding 
fifteen-minute gigs at full price.

(For the record, I sell my CD's for $5, which reflects roughly a 100% 
profit margin.  I sell so few, it doesn't really make much of a 
difference to my bottom line.  I doubt that tripling my price would 
really improve my fiscal balance sheet.)
