yeah, it's a shame. and no serendipity too. either you know it, or you
don't. and i'm talking about real cds, the ones with cover and all. 

infact i rarely go anymore, i buy directly from distributors, trying
to find out about the names i don't know on the net before hand. 

the few stores which don't work this way are so small, there's no real
opportunity for droplifting as you would be seen without doubt. 

...so unless you're friends with the guy... but that would be a different
thing, i think.
