Sure I'll Buy Your CD, I'll Need to See Some ID First

So if you want to sell your used CDs to a store in Florida, you're going to have to turn over finger prints and ID. Florida just joined Utah in having laws that are in place to supposedly stop the sales of counterfeit CDs. Whether or not this is actually a large problem hasn't actually been shown. In addition to having to make their customers feel like criminals, store will also have to hold the CDs they purchase for 30 days before being allowed to resell them. On top of all of this, stores will also be required to secure a $10,000 bond for the right to do all this. How these laws get passed is beyond me. This is just another example of the music industry's greed and desire for power.
