Another deal I found:
Morrissey Greatest Hits by Morrissey - $3.99

seems like they replaced alot of the older tracks on the Rhino Morrissey Greatest hits with ones from his newer CDs. There's a few noticeable ones missing.

I need to check this thread everyday. I'm pissed I missed those Coldplay CDs

Mazje 06-26-08 12:33 AM

First off, thanks for posting this thread! Picked up the Police CD, and also aggravated I missed the Coldplay albums.

Question, though...since it's DRM free, shouldn't Amazon be preferred over iTunes? Any thoughts on which is better?

DVDChris 06-26-08 12:45 AM

Amazon is preferred by me over iTunes. To me DRM free= way better.

In addition, being MP3 format allows me to play the album on my non-iphone smart phone, stream it over my Xbox 360, copy it to an MP3 CD and play in my wife's car, etc. Overall it's just superior.

The only potential execption is an album with an itunes-exclusive bonus (of which there are several).

I was agreeing with that until I noticed Dave uses a dash to separate the title and price and that it was, in fact, not a negative sign.

Probably best to leave personal music preferences out of this thread - I'd say the same about Mariah Carey.

So would I. I won't persecute anyone for buying it, but if you listened to country radio about the time this album came out, they played almost every song on it in rotation. On top of it not really being that great to start with, IMO.

The Bus did say the same thing about Mariah Carey. Personally, I don't mind personal preferences appearing as long as they're brief and not judgmental of other people's preferences.
