    Just something I spotted! CD's are nearly a €1 cheaper when you buy from the .com domain instead of the .ie one! I'm guessing IOL take commission?

    I see the prices for all the pre-releases have gone up to 16euro on cdwow.ie. I wonder will shipping to ireland be blocked on the HK site.

    An e-mail I received today from CD-WOW
    Dear Member,

    The UK Major record companies through their mouth piece the BPI* have unfortunately restricted the UK and Irish consumers right to enjoy the freedom of the World Wide Web.

    As from this weekend, any CD ordered for delivery to the UK and Ireland will incur a surcharge as we are only able to deliver CDs manufactured within the EU (more expensive).

    Delivery to the rest of the world will not be affected.

    You only have a few days left - so order now!

    Be quick to make the best of our current low low prices while you can still exercise your right to choose.

    We will of course still be supplying UK and Irish customers but as of Sunday 25th January 2004 a surcharge of 3.00 Euros (£2.00) per CD will apply.

    Please Note - our prices of DVDs and Games will remain unaffected

    Warmest Regards,
    CD WOW!

    *British Phonographic Industry Ltd


    All I can say is.....BAS.TARDS!!!!
