Do you have an axe to grind with Intrada, Tom?
Jeez.
Intrada wouldn't make as much $$ selling stuff wholesale...plus they have their own customeres who buy other labels product in their store. I'm confused.

I'm talking about their label.
Their store is successful, so why in the world would they not want to distribute their label themselves?

It eliminates this buying frenzy.
No it doesn't. Look at Varese and SAE. And La La Land. A label should be penalized in the fan's eyes because they actually release a title that a whole lot of people were interested in?
If Intrada wanted to be really stingy, they could be like Varese and not give discounts the the retailers, a la Varese Club, and they could reap even more profits on this stuff.

The problem is simple. They release an item you want but for some reason you can't be on the computer at the right time(some people use public computers) and you miss out. Instead of paying $19.95 you might have to pay up to double or triple to get the release. I don't know about you but it would really bother me to have to pay that much more for the score. Call me cheap but I can't pay $5.00 for a bottle of water at the airport. I'll drink from a fountain. I think it is hurting this hobby. Just my opinion.
I don't see how Intrada exclusively wholesaling and in effect giving the profits they would have made to everyone else is going to change things, though....

Okay, well Southall asked this question in that thread:
Where's tomorrow's Jerry Fielding fan going to come from? You can't buy any of his music - again - it all comes and goes within twelve hours.
I love the idea of a perfect world where all scores are available and in print forever. But this has never been true, ever, in the history of mankind, and I frankly don't understand how it could be true.
Oh, except…
In a world of music downloads, it can happen! The music can be available and in stock at all times! Future Jerry Fielding fans can find his music on iTunes, Amazon, and whatever competitors they have.
(Oh, but I forgot -- downloads are the work of the devil, aren't they?)
