out of 6-7 san diego MC's ive met that i'd buy music from this year, *NONE* of them had/have CD's on them.

you cant even FUCKING MEET THESE GUYS and get a CD.

i would fucking jump at the chance to get some new music from san diego for my car. yall need to start ordering your back catelogs and reupping when it sells out.

reminds me of some shit when an artist tried to buy his own cd off me for 50 bucks.
i noticed that too about c.ds being sold out..and the artists not re-upping....I wonder if there is some bootlegging at the small moms and pops stores...etc..

all youd have to do is buy your own copies out of the store and see if they reup without you, but most sd artists dont have the money for all that....theyll take whats owed to them and do no investigative report

besides that, youd never know how many units were sold unless you can get them audited and they report every album sold

Its definitley a concern. i mean look at all the knock off labels in clothes they sell. I had a friend that went to korea..was in the military and he said in korea you can have custom nikes..sweatsuits..leather jackets made super cheap...this was along time ago...like maybe $5 for some shoes that looked authentic....bootlegging is big overseas...just cause we have laws dont mean other countries need to crackdown on it. So I bet more then half of fam bams merchandise comes from korea...they willl even put labels saying made in U.S.A. so if most are selling bootleg shit why wouldnt the c.d shops do it? especially nowadays with a nice c.d printer and duplicator and shrinkwrap machines...
