Where's the business sense?
If they put them up on the website for a similar price, people on a budget who still want to directly support the label would maybe be more inclined to buy them from there. |
88 have said that they make around £1 profit from the price HMV sell them. They'd rather HMV sell them for around the same price they sell Arrow releases. I know the reason why they're priced so low (which I won't go into), but 88's hands are tied with the HMV pricing.
