I make it a point not to purchase Son May CDs simply because they're one
of the largest piraters of music CDs of all kinds, let alone Anime
soundtracks, that you can find. They are very good at what they do as
most of the CD's they produce are audibly indistingishuable from the
originals they're copying and they have gotten much better at
duplicating the packaging that goes along with it right down to the
bonus trading cards that are sometimes included with some CDs. The fact,
however, that the none of the money spent on a Son May CD makes it's way
back to the copyright holders is reason enough for me not to buy them.
Also, if you spent more than $8 on any one of those Son May CD's then
you got ripped off as they regularly sell for $5 - $7 in Taiwan were
they're produced. Two guesses as to why they're so popular with the
dealers at conventions who often sell them for $20 a pop and point out
how much "cheaper" that is compared to the originals at $30 or so.
