I Had to search for the legit cds on Ebay to get the few remaining Titles I wanted. Glad to get the real deal.    Posted:   Jul 27, 2017 - 3:49 AM     By:   John B. Archibald   (Member) Lately, Amazon has been supplying CD-r's instead of legit CD's. I got the recent cast album of the new Broadway musical GROUNDHOG DAY, only to find it was a packaged CD-r. Apparently, Amazon has been doing that with many new releases. Usually it's mentioned in the description of the item, which I hadn't caught, since I never expected something like that to happen. But, for me at least, I'd prefer not to pay regular CD prices for what turns out to be a CD-r.    Posted:   Jul 27, 2017 - 4:55 AM     By:   judy the hutt   (Member) what are the problems with CD-r's. And why are they being used. Sorry I am a little dumb on some of this stuff. All I want is to buy the music (two JW scores coming up) and just "plug and play". Forgive me of my denseness but sometimes the upgrade in technology is a pain in the butt.    Posted:   Jul 27, 2017 - 5:09 AM     By:   johnbijl   (Member) I did mean "we" don't like cdr's. And saying it in a loud protesting annoying voice LOL. You've just reminded me I need to finish my essay on populism, Nicky :-P    Posted:   Jul 29, 2017 - 8:58 AM     By:   leagolfer   (Member) what are the problems with CD-r's.

CDR'S are not like legit club cd's they have a short life, loss of sound, they also have nasty artwork that's not fit to wipe your ass with. What Amazon are doing is there business, however, if people want to feed them purchasing CDRS so be it, there not getting my custom.    Posted:   Jul 29, 2017 - 7:59 PM     By:   TerraEpon   (Member) CDR'S are not like legit club cd's they have a short life, loss of sound, they also have nasty artwork that's not fit to wipe your ass with. Well no, there's no inherent reason that CDRs need to have any worse artwork than a pressed CD -- in fact I have a number of classical releases that one might even call deceptive given they actually look exactly like a 'normal' CD release until you actually look at the CD itself and find they are CDRs In fact, some of you may even own one without knowing it -- if you have the Nimbus release of Ivan the Terrible it could be a CDR....or anything by Numbus, Lyrita or Meridian from the last 10 years (and more recently Sterling). As for the shorter life....a good quality one should, theoretically, last long enough for you to enjoy it in your life.    Posted:   Jul 30, 2017 - 2:07 AM     By:   babbelballetje   (Member) I did mean "we" don't like cdr's.

I knew that name on FB seemed familiar    Posted:   Jul 30, 2017 - 4:56 AM     By:   agentMaestraX   (Member) I have still my official release DEEP IMPACT CD soundtrack - buyer beware I'm afraid!    Posted:   Jul 30, 2017 - 2:22 PM     By:   leagolfer   (Member) CDR'S are not like legit club cd's they have a short life, loss of sound, they also have nasty artwork that's not fit to wipe your ass with.

A classical cd is a different area to a club film score, composer promo scores is where the lines at for me, practically all of them have detailed booklets + the discs have a proper polycarbonate. No. I don't have the 3 stated above, but I do have Ivan the Terrible on RCA red seal a pucker recording. http://osta.org/technology/cdqa13     General Discussion: Man I hate cdrs!    << < 2 3 4  >   Go to page:  1 2 3 4   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3 4
