so where do I pick up my compensation check for getting screwed over for all these years?

You don't, because you weren't screwed. No one forced you to buy CDs; there was no fraud, no violation of your rights. You're not a victim, just a whiner who wants other people to provide you with everything you want regardless of whether they profit by it.
