I sure miss the days when box sets were released by mom and pop down at the old mom and pop box set factory.
The days of the mighty boxset are just about done, now that the masters have been 'consumed' by these large corporations fires.

Besides all that - what the fuck is he even talking about? There has to be one or two mega box sets still coming out every month. Maybe not the kind of shit HE wants - but like we care about that.

Oh, right. Good ol' Mom 'n Pop Enterprises. A wholly owned subsidiary of Yo' Grandmama Inc.

Do they mean the (genuinely) legendary Bear Family firm? The one whose minty box-set designer used to post insider stuff for the box-set dorks until they ran him off (like pretty much every other genuine non-anonymous biz insider)?
[They bitched and bitched and bitched about supposedly finding CD-Rs in their BF boxsets until he split, in order to (of course) sidestep the career-destroying squeeze play they'd put him in. Then they bemoaned his departure. AND they instantly stopped complaining about the CD-R issue, even though he was gone and they could explore the *issue* in detail without his downplaying it. Never did find out if they really did have CD-Rs in newly-packaged box-sets, and if so, who (retailers? wholesalers? Ebay pirates?) put 'em there. Hooferville in a nutshell. Heh.]

Any of you have the time to worry about and post about something this stupid? I sure don't.

So much disposable income, so little new product. C'mon industry, get it together.

LOL. Like the fiftieth anniversary of teeny bopper music really means anything. I like a lot of that music, but it's not a diss if you miss a chance to re-buy shit again.

Didn't TimeLife issue just about every comp of that stuff that anyone would want? The continent's gaping landfills are full of 'em.

I bet a lot of the SHites have seminal copies of the Beatles "Abbey Road".
