Probably because CDs are ridiculously expensive over there, like possibly double what we might pay (or so I've heard). I'm not sure why they don't simply lower the prices such that they wouldn't need to add value. I guess that's just the status quo.

"Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of temperance. It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded." --Abraham Lincoln
