Unfortunately I have had to cut back on my U.S. orders as well (Lasers Edge, Synphonic, etc.) because $10 shipping for a CD is ludicrous IMO. I do a LOT of online CD shopping as it is, I just can't afford to be paying those rates every time. I suppose I'll occasionally still order something if it is impossible to find elsewhere and is a must-have, but my fun little browsing/shopping sprees are going to have to be Canada/UK based from now on. The UK's Royal Mail has been very impressive these last few months IMO - in some cases, packages have been arriving in under a week, which is far better than I can say for most USPS packages.
It's a real shame, I truly want to continue to support the folks at LE, Synphonic, Kinesis etc... I'll do my best.
