Well, other than the fact that you're making an excuse for being lazy
and not fulfilling your half of the agreement by not telling them that
you want the selection, I should add that it's not the Post Office that
pays for the return postage. Ever notice those 3 little words on the
package "Return Postage Guaranteed"? It means that the shipper agrees to
pay the post office when it ships the package back to them.

I'm surprised the CD club didn't do more to you than send monthly notes
(although they may have and you probably didn't read them). I would
assume that if you'd met your membership committment already they would
have eventually cancelled your membership.
