I notice that it only mentions cds in the report so I assume that dvds will stay the same price and not incur the £2 surcharge or is it only a matter of time before the film equivalent of the BPI take note and pressure Cd wow to stop selling cheap dvds ?

God, this country is the pits. We just get ripped off over and over again and no-one does a thing about it.

So far, the Hong Kong site is unchanged, even for pre-orders. Fingers crossed......

I think it`s their new "revenge off the vouchers policy" :)

I feel sorry for CD-Wow, and am generally just p***ed off with the BPI. It`s a joke really; the industry are fighting against the very same people they should be trying to sell to. No wonder so many download music, it`s not because it`s easy its because of the BPI and RIAA.

Maybe CD-Wow will counter it by offering us more vouchers?

Sandy

Anything you can suggest as to why everything is blank on the Hong Kong site? The framework is there but all the album titles and stuff are missing. I`ve enabled cookies and my firewall is set to not block anything.

Thanks

*EDIT*

Dunno what was happening but its suddenly OK. Sorry.
