Can Wal Mart single handedly lower CD Prices?
Shallow:
Well if any one can it's the 250 Billion dollar a year giant. You gotta love those Waltons.

According to this, Walmart wants every CD in their store to be under $10. They buy them for $12 and claim their willing to lose money on CDs in order to sell audio equipment, but I'm pretty sure they'll force the record companies to lower the cost price. If this goes through, then every other store will have to follow. Great news. $9.72 is not a lot to pay for a new CD. Leave it to Wal Mart to finally force those money grubbing record companies down a bit.
Throwback:
most new cds are between 18-21 euros here in holland.
i love men who take pictures with their booty's out:
well best buy u can get cd's some..4 8-9 bucks..i have seen some cd's priced 7.99 up at best buy..
walmart should.. it might make the competitors lower prices..kuz it will cut them out... when folks start hittin walmart up..for cheaper cd's..record companies aint got nuthin to do wit what walmart does wit the prices... kuz they are goin to get their money regardless of what the prices are..
the prices all depends on the store..and how much profits they make..

But Wal Mart is Notorious for making manufacturers and companies lower their prices. If Walmart goes under cost, then they won't stand to lose money for long, just because they said so. They will force the record companies to drop prices, just like they do everybody else.
