Exotic Moods of Les Baxter @ $159.00 STOP!!!!

If you surf "in-print" Les Baxter CD's @ fair $ you'll
see many of the identical cuts on the above listed
rip off. About a month ago I saw this on Ebay with
suckers willing to pay over $60.00+ for this CD.Geez!!

Just think how many classic inprint exotica CD's you could
get for the same price!!!!

Yeah, I was amazed when I started looking for Exotic Moods. It is very expensive for niche music CDs. I believe in copyright laws and that the artists need to be properly compensated for music, however with CDs that is out of print and will more than likely never be re-released. I have no problem asking a fellow lover of the music to burn me a copy of it for the fair market value. I have often downloaded a couple of songs from an artist and then went and bought the CD. However if there is no CD to buy, what do you do? At that point I think you can have a friend burn a copy of the music for you without feeling like I was doing something wrong. Besides if I downloaded all 40 of the songs from Itunes (assuming they are all there) then the whole CD set would only be 40.
