Best Buy to Pull CDs, Target Threatens to Pay Labels for CDs Only When Customers Buy Them

"With the popularity of digital music surging, Best Buy is officially pulling the plug on music CDs, and another retail giant may soon join them. Although CDs remain a relatively popular format worldwide, sales in the U.S. dropped more than 18% last year, prompting Best Buy to drop the format entirely".

I just won at auction (Amoeba) three nice CD's: REM Document ($.68!), Miles Davis Around The World ($1.81) and The Replacements Tim ($4). Shipping was $5.75 from LA to Florida. Done from the convenience of home with my smartphone!

I bought an expensive laptop from them and their extra insurance policy. The laptop was a lemon, in their shop 8-10 times, once they repaired the unit and didn't hook up the internal fans, toasted the motherboard, and forced me to take them to small claims court to get that resolved. No Best Buy for me, ever again.
