Okay "Bro", it's my turn to call it how I see it. 

People like me?  People who work, and have money???  You keep making these broad, narrow-minded generalizations.  I'm not sure what you're point is, other than you just don't like paying market value for anything.  It's simple supply and demand.  The demand is high, while the supply is low.  Basically your saying that everyone else shouldn't buy the album you want to buy, so you can buy it for less money?  If you want to blame anyone, blame the record companies for not pressing enough copies to satisfy the demand.
