Universal Music Group drops CD prices

The recording industry continues to attribute slumping music sales to online piracy, but Universal Music Group (UMG) has recently announced an initiative to spur consumers to spend more money in record stores. The commercial music giant is taking a novel approach: It’s dropping the price of CDs.

Emphasis mine.

So many snarky comments…

I’m still not buying CDs while they have the idiotic DRM coding that won’t let them play on car CD players.
