In Reply to: Tower Records Store Closing Sale in Chicago posted by Deacon Blues on October 16, 2006 at 12:12:10:
Tower has always been a tool of the record industry...Now, there's no reason to cry as they are unable to save their monopoly. There are plenty of indie record stores in Chicago, plenty of deals on line, and more importantly, - it's time to embrace new technology.
We should be rejoicing, that the good old free market, unhindered capitalism, - has won the day and is taking down these dinosaurs. They've stolen from consumers, and their artists for many years, - now they're getting their just desserts. All the while, those who have been bamboozled into believing that it's important to support price gouging, price collusion, pretense of copyright infringement, cheating artists of their royalties, and unfair tax shelters are going to cry about spending $20 for the latest CD version of Milly Vanilly...
Time to support labels like Six Degrees....
With your feet on the air and your head on the ground, try this trick and spin it, your head'll collapse if there's nothing in it then you'll ask yourself, where is my mind?
