Maybe CDs aren’t expensive in Australia. Here in the U.S., 23 American dollars is entirely reasonable.
It varies, just like the USA. You will have stores that sell CD’s for around $10 and some for over $20, it also depends on how new the CD is and the year it was released and if it’s a new remix.
And also depends on what, CD’s which are new albums and have taken months/years to write and record the music would obviously be reasonable for $23.
The Holy Father didn’t write the Rosary yesterday, he isn’t looking for profit, so it doesn’t make sense to compare costs of CD’s issued by the Vatican to the studios looking for major profits.
For someone who is outraged by a $23 4 CD recording of Pope Benedict reciting the rosary, you seem to know very little about the actual product. Maybe you should investigate these things before commenting, as you were unaware previously that it was in Latin and was a 4 CD set, which I had to clarify. Now you are wondering about the full content. I suggest you gather all the facts before criticizing.
I missed the Latin bit, fine. But I don’t really need to look at how many CD’s are in a pack when it says ‘praying the rosary’
I know what a rosary is and how long it usually takes someone to say it, unless it’s some exceptional circumstance where a few words are repeated every 10 minutes which I highly doubt.
Hence why it’s unusual that a rosary in Latin should be recorded on 4 CD’s when it could be on 1, maximum 2, which I have already clarified.
This is my last post here. Those who wish to buy it, go ahead and let us know how it is. I can’t be bothered arguing anymore.
