Not surprising.

This is a common feature down under!

Some stores only sell CDR's burnt on request.

Claude Kelly happens to be a singer/songwriter/producer who was understandably furious.

I'm disappointed some of you think this is ok to do - in a CD store, no less!

I'm sure she was only trying to be helpful. They didn't have it in, so she offered to burn him a copy! Probably most of her friends are happy with CDR's, so why not this famous dude?

Well, for one thing, it's hardly a good business model for that store. Second, this famous dude's livelihood depends on sales.

Mine are all hidden in a salt mine in Utah.

Why in the hell was he trying to buy a CD in a store in the first place?

If they don't have a CD in a store, they go over to the computer, look it up in their database, and they order it.

I never heard of that - from a store. They usually order it, and the shipping is free, and sometimes it's at the door the next day!

So, that seems unusual.

I can think of many stores in Australia who bill burn discs for you.

And it's legal.

One notable one is on the main drag opposite the Kings Cross fountain
