They (yes, they) wondered why selling music online was so hard at first.
They offered the same piece of music on lower quality (lossful packing)
 and with DRM on the same price as a real, non-DRM'd CD. I don't know
online-prices today, since I'm not intrested (it's still lossful packing
and I want the physical media to put on my CD-self, not to mention if
the booklet has lyrics, pics etc).
