Re: One & Only BMG Music Service Thread (Part 5)
i'm sorry this discussion is becoming useless to you, hollowgen. I was curious to see what you have contributed to it, so i re-read all 46 pages. The above 4 quotes contain all of your contributions to this thread.
There are plenty of posts here that do not interest me. That has not kept me from reading the ones i like, or from contributing to the thread. I have enjoyed the high level of activity that we've recently experienced since the announced closure of the club. There used to be days on end without a comment or a new code. I hope you can find a way to extract the information you need, while leaving those with more tangential comments an opportunity to express themselves.

Ryan Adams and the Cardinals, "Cardinology" (Feb 09)
Misha Alperin, "Her First Dance" (Jan 28)
Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, "Ella and Louis Again" (Feb 13)
Johnny Griffin, "A Blowin' Session" (Jan 28)
Cat Stevens, "Tea for the Tillerman" (Feb 13)
Cat Stevens, "Teaser and the Firecat" (Feb 13)
I received Ryan Adams and the Cardinals "Jacksonville City Nights" in the mail today. It did not have the BMG barcode on it; that was the first Lost Highway title I've gotten without it. (Not that it matters but thought it was interesting.)

Some of the "shut-ins" that post on this board need to have someone wheel their asses outside for a while. 
i'm sorry you felt my comment was condescending, and therefore allowed you to break the forum rules with name calling. that was not my intent at all. i found the post very interesting.
regardless, i used to try to make contributions to this discussion (see previous 4 threads over the past 5 years--if you read way back then).
the thread is cluttered with tangents and unrelated items, and i don't think it's an unreasonable request to keep it clutter free for those of us who want to get to the point of the thread: relevant discussion on what makes the club tick & the hot deals (see: forum title) we can get from it.

Hmm. Yesterday the two Cat Stevens and the REM Murmur double were listed as shipped. Now they are listed as TOOS.
Must curious. And most vexing.

Let us know what ultimately shows up: the one or two disc version of this title. At least two of us mentioned in the past about receiving the one disc version instead; I chose not to bring it to BMG's attention due to it being sent from using a 3-free code from here.

I received the 1 CD version and asked for a replacement. BMG said to keep the 1 CD version and then re-ordered on their dime...

Thanks to all for the TOOS lists. I for one, have found this thread to be incredibly useful, I check it at least twice daily.

Re: One & Only BMG Music Service Thread (Part 5)
First time contributing to this thread, but just today I got an e-mail offer to "go paperless" in exchange for their "8 for the price 1" offer," which I find rather odd, since there is only supposed to be one more paper catalog before the club shutters its doors in June. I may just do it, though!

As of this morning the 2 Cat Stevens Deluxe were still listed as TOOS. But the Holst The Planets 2-disc set I ordered changed from TOOS to Pending Credit Card Approval. I think they were swamped with orders for the Cat Stevens. I'll probably order another pair for 65% off if I can still get free shipping.
