Thread Name: Camsco vs: CDNow
Subject: RE: Camsco vs: CDNow
The other point that should be made here is that CAMSCO is a small operation that is trying to maintain a stock of pretty obscure and non-commercial recordings that sell in low numbers without having high volume sellers to help support the operation. I suspect that _much_ of Camsco's catalog is not and would not be available from a mass-market operation such as CDnow. For me the bottom line is that it is worth paying a bit more to insure that the music I love continues to be available. Believe me, CDnow doesn't give a shit about "keeping the music alive"; Dick and Sandy do, and that is enough for me to continue giving them my patronage.
