From Slashdot:

"The folks over at Techdirt just put up a great story today, with the RIAA claiming the cost of a CD has gone down significantly relative to the consumer price index. The RIAA 'Key Facts' page claims that based on the 1983 price of CDs, the 1996 price should have been $33.86. So naturally, you should feel like you're getting a bargain. Sounds an awful lot like the cable companies saying cable prices are really going down even though they're going up."
I don't really see any discussion beyond "RIAA SUX" spawning from this, but I thought it was interesting and worth a post. Especially since I live in America (the RIAA's jurisdiction) and buy a lot of music CDs.
