I never had a problem with getting 50% towards in store credit. Most places give far less than that for used CDs. Just because I pay 50% doesn't necessarily mean anything either way, but at least I'm researching it, that's fair enough isn't it? I also buy some of the used and new CDs from them as well(to keep). I really doubt there's anything to be alarmed about. I honestly don't believe that what I'm doing is stealing/or illegal. I may be wrong, but if so, then so be it.
