yeah, it's a bad deal

bring out their own version and compete against yours

instead of waiting for the possibly of something selling
this gets them the money up front
and someone else has to worry about recouping their money

other than bragging rights, it's probably a bad deal

maybe, the reissues didn't do the numbers needed
so they are looking formonet in new ways


Yes, and all the economies of scale are lost along the way. Which is really stupid. If they were pressing 20,000 and selling pepople boxes of cds to sell-on then that might have worked a bit better but this seems grossly unfair. Not to mention that in the US the retail music market is now at best 50/50 between cd and digital on new releases. This looks more like an exercise in punishing the most loyal fans rather than a business opportunity. Shall we say musguided rather than cynical?
