Back in the 1960's many of us would buy a "45" - a 45 rpm record that had two songs on it. The "A" side and the "B" side. If I recall correctly, those cost about 79¢. How much is that now, adjusted for inflation? Coupla bucks?

I'd rather listen to an hour of Abba than an hour of The Beatles.

More like $5 to $6 I would say.

How intelligent is it to raise prices during a severe economic recession?
You can never get enough of what you don't need to make you happy.
