the CBC can be biased, but not always. I'M not the greatest expert on detecting Bias, I've also parsed between the lines.
That said, I didn't start downloading, I ordered CDs from the US. usually if I ordered less than $100 in CDs I still got free shipping, but no duty from customs. Or like... 6 bucks. But for 7-9 CDs instead of 3, that wasn't too bad.
It's times like this I'm proud to be Canadian. Even though I'm living in Germany right now. Here I can buy CDs for a whole lot less than I could in Canada. And it's because they have less piracy here.
I remember buying CDs at the store in Canada for 20 bucks, then seeing them at $24, $26 and finally $33... no wonder their sales plummeted!! It was cheaper to order stuff from the States!.... or download;)
