Re: Amazon MP3 DOTD Thread (Mar-Apr)
A small nitpick, given that they have 1,500 albums on sale, but there are some real head-scratchers in there. A lot of repeats from March and April's sales for one. And while I love the fact that they do a lot of greatest hits type albums in these sales, do we really need multiple greatest hits albums for several artists? There are THREE greatest hits albums by the Staple Singers on sale. I like "I'll Take You There" as much as the next man, but damn! And was there really anyone clamoring for every NKOTB album to be put on sale?

Re: Amazon MP3 DOTD Thread (Mar-Apr)
I picked up Fleetwood Mac's ST, great album.
I have to ask, is there any sort of rhyme or reason to how they offer you discounts after purchasing mp3s? Every once in a while I seem to get a free song or a partial discount off an album, but I don't recall/know how to find out when I have free songs.

Since it is a lot to look through I'll just say that anyone who likes David Bowie even a little and doesn't have it should pick up Hunky Dory. His best in my opinion, but definitely up there high in anyone sane's opinion.
Also Let It Bleed (Rolling Stones) isn't one of the $5 MP3 albums, but it is 4.99, and it is really great too.

Re: Amazon MP3 DOTD Thread (Mar-Apr)
I'm one of the last holdouts when it comes to downloading music. I love record shops and actually owning music complete with artwork, booklets, etc. I don't own an IPod or any kind of MP3 player, and I'm not even looking into buying one.
But this deal, along with the new Sloan album for $7.99, finally broke me.
Damn you, Amazon!
