WalMart currently sells around 10% of the CD's sold in the country. They want to sell 20% of them by the year 2000. Nothing seems to be wrong with this. It's the whole concept of competition between businesses, right?

Wrong. There's more to it than that. WalMart ALSO wants to be seen as THE "family values" store in the country. Now, do you think it's going to go along with what most people perceive as family values to be selling Marliyn Manson CD's? Nope. So, WalMart has a policy that requires bands to change CD's to get them sold at WalMart.

Now, with WalMart selling 10% of the CD's sold in the country, what band is going to refuse to change their coverart, or lyrics, or whatever? Not many have, so far. If WalMart reaches their goal of selling 20%, no band will EVER be able to refuse to change. Therefore, we have to stop WalMart from reaching their goals. It's a very simple plan, really... BOYCOTT. Don't buy your CD's at WalMart. That simple.

Alright, I'll get off my soap box now...
