The true creator of the music is barely getting 5% of that 20 bucks!!!
By "true creator" you mean whose face is on the cover and voice is on the music, right? Do you honestly think that those are the only people that are involved in creating music?
that's the whole point! the bigwigs have the whole industry wrapped up and they're charging outlandish prices for something so small.
So? If you want it, you have to buy it.
I believe someone else can charge what they want but this is totally uncompetitive
Ahh, so you really do agree with copyright law (or maybe you don't, you just haven't mentioned it). You just believe that antitrust is playing a role in the music industry, and that's an entirely different subject.
But how is it uncompetitive? If you don't like the music (or the price thereof) that is published by one record company, go to the next. If you don't find an acceptable price, then perhaps you should lower your pricing standards, or look for music from sources other than professionally published music you find at the mall.
If I wanted to sell you a computer for $2000, i could do that but someone else could come along and sell a similar computer for $1000.
Probably. That's called competitive pricing.
