I need someone to help me understand the Compact Disc marketplace.

Most of the discs in the record stores are made in Japan or Europe.
However, some are labeled "IMPORT" and cost more.  Why do "IMPORTS"
cost more than regular discs that are also imported?

Also, what is an "EXTENDED PLAY" CD?  These cost more too and usually
have less music on them than some discs at the regular price!

What do these record companies think?  That we're on dope?
