it is a bit steep for ‘used’ cd’s but then … cd’s don’t degrade a lot through use.
I’d be more worried about all the extra not-so-re-usable bits.

@pagan8th I prefer to buy physical media whenever possible.
Yes, it’s possible to do that with mp3’s but when that site goes down you won’t have any backups at all.
And you really want to be sure that those digital media are free of the DRM crap that companies like to add in order to add all the negative issues of physical media to a digital medium.

Plus you never know what quality encoding was used … until it’s too late.
With physical media I can rip it to a lossless format or a high quality lossy format if I want to.
