Far from true guest.   Sure there are lots of "bargin bin" CD's, but the quality of the artist usually matches the price. This happens for ALL types of music. You can go into that same bargain bin and find tons of Jimi Hendrix CD's as well. They are usually cheaply produced and often bootlegs. Let the buyer beware!

Don't discourage artists from finding LEGITIMATE markets for their music. Contrary to your opinion, the American audience will find QUALITY material once they are exposed to it.

Your complaint would be like saying don't bother to sell smoked salmon or any other delicacy to the U.S. because they have McDonalds.
