Florida & Utah sucks aka Used CD Legislation

Florida's new legislation goes well beyond the measures of a traditional pawn shop law. The state now requires all retailers selling second-hand CDs to acquire a permit and invest in a $10,000 security bond through the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Stores must fingerprint individuals trading in CDs, copy their state identification, and pay them only in store credit; traded CDs must be held for 30 days before being resold. With the new legislation already in effect, at least one retailer is reported to have discontinued sales of used items as a result. Pawn shop laws in many other states, which tend to be less restrictive than those in Florida and Utah, often go unenforced.

lets drive small business owners out of work.

and pander to the motherfucking RIAA corporate overlords. i swear, they have as much power as the oil lobby these days.

Im curious to know what it takes to sell a handgun in these states.

Free market economy eh? although I'm suprised that this went into effect, it's been coming for a long time. EB/Babbages is the root - ever notice how they harrass you non-stop about trading in used games? They also stock fewer copies of titles to encourage used sales, because of the increased profit margin on those sales.

Guns don't kill people, illegal CD burning kills people.

It's about time this whole business of used CD sales/trades went underground.
