this is interesting.. probably too little too late but I still like having CDs even if I endup ripping them, I love having the tangible albums.. hopefully the other labels will follow suit quickly.
and while I know Audioholics is not always liked here they also have a a little more in depth article on it.

    Interesting.

    I've noticed a downward push in prices. Be it CD (music), DVD (movie) and BR (movie). The pressures behind CD is probably different from DVD or BR. The internet driving down CD prices and BR just driving down DVD with many older films now being published on BR. These older movies generally lowers the expected BR price to be asked for and paid.

    Overall, things seem to be starting to settle out, but they are not completely settled yet.
