Farin Posted August 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 yeah, but the insurance only covers the monetary worth of the CDs - now the small labels don't have any income until they can restock. And in many cases such small labels have a wide range of records with only a small number of issues, I think it's questionable whether it's financially worth to replace all of them like that... Also... music was destroyed there - that's just as tragic as books being burned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
