[Slowhand] FW: Bonus tracks

[Jon Maclean]

I won't argue with that Scott. I disapprove of all this clever marketing
country by country, but of course my opinion as a consumer is worth zip
to the record companies. It would be much fairer if all tracks were
available in all countries and that may be something which occurs as
record companies continue to embrace download technology in future. Even
though I can't be bothered with downloading, we should all at least have
equal opportunity to obtain bonus tracks, etc.

Cheers,
Jon

Hi Jon,

What about the fact that when EC toured Australia there was a special CD

package available for your market?
What about Japan? They did the same thing there on the last few tours.
For years the Europeans have had bonus track CD's that we had to try and

special order to get our hands on over here.
A couple of years ago I paid dearly to get a Dire Straits Best of from
the 
UK that included a live Knopfler show disc that was not available in
USA.

I agree it's a pain for everyone but please don't feel that we over here
in 
the USA don't feel the pinch at times as well.
