QPL and Jim Beach know quite a lot about "business considerations". In the UK our news-stands are infected with a disgusting populist rag, owned by Rupert Murcoch, called The Sun posing as a newspaper. The sort of paper that has young female models with their tits out in skimpy school uniforms on page 3 and then on page 5 takes the moral high ground about paedophiles. A paper that was viciously homophobic. A paper that OUR VERY OWN ROGER TAYLOR completely slagged off in his song "Dear Mr. Murddoch".
So how was "We Will Rock You" promoted when it started at The Dominion? By giving away a CD of 4 versions of the song FREE WITH "THE SUN".
Business considerations, eh Greg? Here's one for you - get a decent job.

Very well said - a great description of the cover-all phrase of 'business considersations' so often bandied about (often ironically at the same time that Brian is espousing musical intergrity and artist freedom!)

Tee hee hee.......
You bought one.
You actually bought it. You looked at it on the shelf, thoguht it would be good and paid for it.
Ha ha ha ha!
It's no wonder people laugh at us Brits..........
Just when you have the power to vote with your pocket, you go and make the wrong choice. I'd wager that's how the current government are planning on winning votes for the next election.
Actually, that's not a bad idea - if the Labour party could get into bed with QPL and have a bit of propaganda included with every Queen release, they'd surely influence plenty of the idiots who blindly buy everything.....

Well I agree that it did have something to do with money. Not too sure about "did it for the fans" though.
P.S. My password in fact does have that many letters :P

Actually I fail to see the point on putting a CD in my CD player, listen to two songs off ANATO and then proceed to take it out from the CD player and put another one to listen to two more songs from ANATO... isn't it easier to listen to the whole album?
Oh wait!... there's the fancy single covers, sure! one (the Bo Rhap one) is totally purple and boring and the other one... is ANATO's sleeve!
So why should I spend a lot of money in this set? Maybe to get a new fancy shiny box??
Oh wait... yeah! I must empty my wallet because Brian and Roger have done the best they could for me, because they want me to have this! ungrateful bastard I am! gotta run to the record shop ASAP.

Do you find it enjoyable buying stuff and returning it? Because you sure do it a lot.
If I owned the shop and you came in, I would politely ask you to shop somewhere else.

Where's the rest of the Greatest Video Hits? Where's the rest of the Audio DVD's (was it ADATR next?)? Some of us bought these things believing we would build them into a complete set.
[/QUOTE]
I didn't. I got them because I liked the idea of the product at hand.
And it is for no other reason that I'm asking for this box for Christmas. Simply because it's there and I'd like to have it, listen through it once this year, once next, once in four years and in between enjoy it's being in my little collection next to a shiny, new printed CD with the Hot Space, The Miracle and Innuendo demos. It's all good (and nobody forced me to get anything).

I bought TCR in order to hear it properly all the way through. I took it back because it is lazy shit and not worth the money.
I've advised anyone daft enough to have bought the Box set to take it back. I haven't taken it back because I didn't buy it myself in the first place - because I know and bought everything contained within it first time around and it's only value is to maybe throw the cd's away and use the box as an emergency toilet.
Try reading what you're attempting to be arsey about. You little tit.
Can I politely ask you to f...off?

You can ask...
But I think everyone here would rather you f... off and take your stupid "I took ____ back to the shop" threads with you.
I have an idea. Why not take yourself back to the shop and get us all a refund.
I believe that store would be Babies R Us. I don't think you'll need a receipt.

Microwave - Since when do you think for everyone? Just because you have swollen head as big as Texas, does not mean that everyone thinks like you.

As written by LyricHuner below ... I can see where Jim Beach got his "Don't Flood the Market" attitude. When there are so many Stepfords that will buy any crap if it has the Queen name on it, it is no wonder that QPL is too lazy and has not released any archive material within the last 4 years while continuously delaying the "real' box sets.

You are such a jerk. Just because you don't like the Cosmos Rocks it isn't worth the money and is lazy sh*t???? That's your opinion, but you could at least say something more polite like "I don't think that The Cosmos Rocks was very good" instead of being a jerk about it

I took Clear back to the hospital. They didn't want him either.
well, i agree with those who say buying of this box set and similar things is wasting the money. If nobody bought this, QPL will realise that there's no point it releasing this, and they will start to make decent stuff for fans...
