The Poojer Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 only one that interested me was Outkast Speakerboxx, but it's 2.60 and with the $1 credit(one per customer by the way), still makes it $1.60, I'll wait and go home tonight and download it for free ....arrrggghhh Crazy deals: http://slickdeals.net/f/3890868-Album-CD-Free-1-MP3-Credit-from-0-70-Pearl-Jam-Journey-Black-Crowes-Boston-Aerosmith-Destiny-s-Child-Outkast-Alice-in-Chains-Dirty-Dancing-0-70-Beyonce-Rod-Steweart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 You only get 1 $1 credit. So after the 1st, it's not free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 You only get 1 $1 credit. So after the 1st, it's not free. But still...all of SRV's discs (that I can find), each less than $3.00? The best of Buddy Guy for $1.30? $0.70 for Boston? There's some damn good deals there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Are their VHS tapes on sale too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezmid Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 Are their VHS tapes on sale too? A lot of people in that thread made related comments, but it's not a good comparison. A CD has a higher fidelity than any MP3 you buy from Amazon or iTunes, and it takes minutes to turn the CD into a bunch of MP3s of higher quality than you'll buy.

There's some damn good deals there. You are absolutely correct and I'm going to take advantage of several of those deals. I was merely saying that they're not paying you to take more than 1.

Fezmid Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 Then why do people buy music from iTunes? Because most people don't give a crap about audio quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) A lot of people in that thread made related comments, but it's not a good comparison. A CD has a higher fidelity than any MP3 you buy from Amazon or iTunes, and it takes minutes to turn the CD into a bunch of MP3s of higher quality than you'll buy. Of course a CD will have higher fidelity. An MP3 has about a tenth the amount of data a WAV file of a song has, so as to save space on a player. Then why do people buy music from iTunes? The only way I can justify doing it (and I don't do it often) is to get individual songs without having to buy the complete album.

Ramius Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 So i've been adding some of these to my cart, and while they are listed at 70 cents (or whatever) they keep showing up as $6.99 in the cart. Anyone else having this issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the answer I was expecting. Sounds like you need to follow better bands/musicians. I pretty much only listen to live shows from start to finish so I would only want the whole CD. I even hate when they do live CDs and mix in a few songs from different shows. Most of the band I follow allow taping of their shows which you can either download for free or purchase the whole show either by downloading or buying the CD. I typically buy the CD.

The Poojer Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 we may have discussed this already, but you should check out dimeadozen.org, its a bittorrent site but they have an incredibly wide array of live shows. they do their best to not put any commercially available stuff and they try to stick with 'taper friendly(or ambivalent)' acts This is the answer I was expecting.
