„If you know you like one song, you purchase the entire album, the album as a whole becomes the experience good you care about, and by repetition of listening to several songs, rather than simply one song, by the same artist, you may be able to accumulate some tastes for the artist. If that's the case, then I wouldn't expect the proliferation of technology like iPods and MP3 players to change that too much. But, I also get the sense that bundling several songs on the single album was something which studios because of the returns to scale. Selling individual songs straight to consumers historically was not viable given the high transaction costs and tranportation costs associated with buying and distribution.“

„While wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to throw a bottle of Wal-Mart brand wine into their shopping carts, there is a market for inexpensive wine, said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at Roger Williams University in Bristol, R.I. She said: "The right name is important."“http://www.snoozebuttondreams.com/archives/ 026527.html - Cached
„The middle section of the album flows by nicely enough, but doesn't make your hairs stand on end, for example. "Bag Lady" which appears towards the end is a highlight however that matches almost anything from 'Baduizm'. Overall this is a quality follow-up that consolidates rather than moves on her reputation, but long term that may prove to be a good thing.“http://www.adriandenning.co.uk/badu.html - Cached
„You'd like them after a heavy dose of listening to Iron Maiden, they made a pleasant change. For the vast majority of the time however, during each and every song, you'd find yourself drifiting off about half way through. Repetition is fine, hell, many styles of music are based all around repetition.“http://www.adriandenning.co.uk/petshopboys.html - Cached
„This eight-song album opens with "Chand Ki Peshani". It is typically Gulzar poetry with a lot of emphasis on metaphors. It is followed by "Ka Aate Ho" which has a soft, lingering effect.“http://www.hinduonnet.com/thehindu/mp/2002/11/25/stories/ 2002112500580300.htm - Cached
„The first single from the album, “Yeah, Whatever,” is an excellent blend of smooth verses and harmonies that guide you through the ups and downs of life, love and happiness. Never have I heard such a compelling mix of melodies from a rock band before, and the group’s uniqueness sets them apart from any other band out there.“http://www.ccchronicle.com/back/00feb14/ ae5.html - Cached
„Thanks Burr, I feel alot more comfortable combining melodies and chords these days...something about constant repetition, it gets easier and easier. These songs were all written so fast...they just sort of flow out.“http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~bsettles/fawm2004/archives/ 00000047.html - Cached

„CDs usually contain a lot of songs the buyer does not want. We're forced to pay for the clunkers to get the two or three hits.“http://paulandrews.typepad.com/paulandrews/2003/12/ msft_slowphone_.html - Cached

„What's interesting about this is that it's difficult to believe that this is a loss leader for Wal-Mart. In fact everything about online music pricing is arbitrary. Wal-Mart, however, understands pricing better than just about anyone - they actually run supply and demand models.“http://www.mdcbowen.org/cobb/archives/ 001272.html - Cached

„Wal-Mart refused to discuss whether the purchase will lead to any changes in its music download service , but knowledgeable insiders confirm that Wal-Mart will certainly decrease the price of both CDs and individual downloads for their artists, putting further pressure on alternate music download services such as Apple 's iTunes and Napster 2.0 . Additionally, analysts believe that Wal-Mart is considering experimentation with a subscription-based download service that would provide rationed download access to the entire Universal catalog for a flat fee of approximately $5/month.“http://www.corante.com/importance/archives/ 002805.html - Cached

„We have an extended electric guitar workout on the lengthy and rather trying actually 'The Wizard', but otherwise this is Bolan buisness as usual - pre Glam Rock. 'The Children Of Rarn' is a very short nonsensical vocal workout over a primitive electronic keyboard sound, and bookends the album. 'Jewel' makes good use of Marc's new found love of Electric over acoustic, with lots of groovy little parts amidst the melody and bongo's.“http://www.adriandenning.co.uk/bolan.html - Cached
„Bo Ramsey: In The Weeds Reviews In The Weeds Reviews and Commentary Dirty Linen (Baltimore, MD), Feb/Mar 1998 In The Weeds is Ramsey's third roots rock album for Trailer (but his first album of new material since 1991's Down to Bastrop) and his eighth release overall. He is, nonetheless, still just as well known for his work as sideman/producer for Greg Brown and more recently his contributions to R.B. Morris' album as he is for his own efforts.“http://www.boramsey.com/discs/weed_rev.html - Cached
