There is now an account preference about cover art. You can choose to only receive discs with cover art (which, I assume, means you can only ship discs with cover art).
For those la la members that love Cover Art, a trade preference has been implemented that will result in trades completed only with Cover Art. Go to My Account and select “Only send me CDs with Cover Art” to instate this preference. Cover art preference: Send me the first available CD, with or without cover art. Send me CDs only if they include the front booklet cover art. |
Yeah I noticed there are a ton of new features. I love my coverart, but with my obscure list of wants, I'd rather get the solo disc than no disc at all.

Getting back in return: Nirvana Unplugged, to replace my copy that was stolen long ago. Now if only I could get rid of some of these crappy country CDs... |
I've gotten rid of quite a bit of crap that I thought I would be stuck with forever also.
I can't believe someone actually wanted Live - Birds Of Pray. |
My trades have slowed way down, but even if it all stopped now I'd be very happy. I have received a few extremely hard to find or expensive CDs. Got Miracle Legion's "Me and Mr. Ray" which goes for $78.00 on GEMM (and even more on other sites). Someone also sent me Lloyd Cole's "Easy Pieces" which is also a little rare. Cool.
|
I also have a boatload of invites now if anyone needs them. I have had really good luck with the service so far getting a decent amount of liner notes and only 3 discs that skipped at all. Trading has slowed down though since i've blown through the bigger more accessible releases i had on my want list.

Very cool, although why did they then give me all these invites if they aren't needed. :lol:
|
They were needed up until July 1st, I believe. Maybe you got them before that?
|
I've gotten some people at work interested in using Lala, so in this instance I'll actually make use of the invites even though they aren't necessary: free t-shirts ahoy!
|
I forgot about the tshirts - bummer - i would have liked a couple of the designs.
|
I just logged into my LaLa account today to confirm a cd I recieved. After looking at a couple of cds, I had a blue message saying I qualified for a free T-Shirt.
Pretty cool.. Not sure why as I never invited anyone. Maybe since I got in pretty early and have a large have/want/trade list? Says I should get the shirt in 2-3 weeks. |

Same here. Probaby has to do with the amount of trades you have done. I've traded 61.
|
No free shirt for me :( I only have like 22 trades though.
|
I have 61 traded as well.
|
Seems 60 is likely the magic number. I'm at 54 traded, with 19 more that I could potentially send out, but I'm hesitant to do so because I'm not getting anything in return these days. My wants must be too weird or no one cares to part with the CDs I'm after. Booo! I really want one of the blue shirts, too...

Also, since they added the option to require artwork, all but one CD that I've received have had both the front and back art. :up: |
I'd like an invite if anyone has one.
One question after reading the first couple of pages, are the liner notes/cover included in most trades or is it just the cd itself? If it's just the CD itself, I don't think I'd do any trades. |

You will at a minimum get the front artwork and will usually get both. |
I actually went back to not just wanting titles with artwork. Many of the ones on mylist are offbeat enough i'll be happy to just get the disc and hate to limit my chances.
|
Odd coincidences:
Last Tuesday, I shipped a CD to someone named Mary in New York City. Last Friday, I shipped a CD to Mary's next door neighbor. Today, I shipped a second CD to Mary. That apartment floor is going to be rockin' out to Shai, Hammer, and Arrested Development very shortly... |
