  Well, the actual cost for manufacturing CD's was thirty cents about
two years ago.  I'd guess it's gone down a bit.  I got this info from
The Media Lab book.  It's an excellent source for various info...
When you buy a CD at a music store, you're giving loads of dough to
EVERYONE along the production line.  Not just the musician.  You're
paying everyone.  Kinda sick, eh?  A few years from now and the prices
will drop.  Until then, we pay an arm and a leg for a thirty cent
disc...

  Oh well...
