why is it absurd? an electronic version can be backed up so never lost, read by(depending on DRM) multiple people at once. MUCH smaller .

And it isnt an issue that gets brought up with Music!

Paolo Nuitini - Sunny side up = £5.99 with free postage from play.com
Same CD from iTunes... = £7.99

it is a top seller via both retailers.
