David,

Further to my previously discussed purchase of two CDs from AMZN (Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and Cherry Poppin Daddies), both of which were executed flawlessly (as I had noted), I happened to be browsing at a brick and mortar place today -- Best Buy -- and was shocked to see the same two CDs for about 20% less than charged by AMZN.

I could have saved a bundle had I not acted on impulse, but instead simply driven to Best Buy the next morning.

If the word gets out that you can buy CDs for some 20% less at a brick and mortar place than on the "convenient" internet, then AMZN might not continue to do so well.
