And another.....The Blackening leaked!!

All I know is that it's not the world's biggest secret that you can find this CD for free basically anywhere on the Internet. Why the hell are they jacking the price on this puppy? Maybe rasputin's will be cheaper.

no, it's not the label that makes the big buck (ok, they get quite a bit, but they pay all the advances etc. and take all the risk....if a band doesn't sell enough to recoup it's the label's loss, so even if they make some more on another band...it's not as much as you might think).

it's the retailers and distributers who really get the cash.

Well what ive been told is the publishing side of a record company gets the majority of a CD's sale.

If a band dosent sell enough to recoup the labels loss exactly right, thats what I tried to say. If your fucking anybody your fucking the label more than the band is what I mean.

 

[Genius Gone Insane]

yes Rasputin's is a reasonable $13.99! Damn i'm cheap

 

[unsilpauly]

the blackening is soooo good. id pay 20 bucks for it if i had too. if you go to best buy the first week, cds are always under 15 dollars. most of the time they are like 9.99. just checked itunes and its 9.99 there.

Just went to Virgin to pick this CD up. They want $18 for this.

I refuse to pay that much for a CD I already own--sorry, stole--via bittorrent. So I went online to Amazon and it wasn't much cheaper.

Know anywhere I can find it cheaper? I'm definitely gonna buy it, but not for that much.

Poor business model it seems.

this statement above is why cd's cost $20+

just bought it for 19,99 €!!!

that sucks...it really does! but it's not the band's fault that the cd is so pricey, so why should I fuck them by downloading....

Dude, you are seriously doing something wrong. I bought it last Saturday at Media Markt for 12,99 Euro. It was in their "advertisements of the week" section and marked down a Euro or two. Wherever you buy your shit: reconsider buying again from that place!!

Hey are we talking about piracy in this thread?

Cool. I love talking about piracy.

I also love my swash-buckling outfit that I bought via eBay.

Woah, check out where the first track from the blackening came from. Madness. Check out 0:33. This is Phil Demmel's old band. You hear it again throughout the song.
