Last I heard was Amazon is worth around $10 billion
Second, it's a valid point that he's making. It's the same reason they post previews of video games on the game's pages. They post a 15-30 second clip of each track so people get a feel for the album, and can decide if they want to buy it. You also have to understand that for a lot of these albums Amazon sells them by the track at 99 cents each, so if somebody hears a clip they really like, they're more inclined to at least buy that track. There's a reason Amazon continues to thrive. There's a thing called Amazon Vine which I am a part of, where a select group of a few hundred people get to pick from all sorts of items every month to try & keep before they're even on the market. Stuff like GPS units, computer software, home security systems, right down to stuff like new soft drinks, new CD's and new video games. You get to select two products every month. Why do they do this? All they ask is that you post an honest review of each product you get. It's a win-win situation for everybody involved.
So it all comes down to moving units. Amazon does all the small things (posting previews & clips from albums & games), and the big things (getting the product out and having valid reviews of it posted up for when it's released), and obviously it's a winning combination.

Hes right though.. everyone that is actually a big enough fan of tech n9ne to come to this forum should be buying this album.. i mean i could see why people wouldn't want to buy prozak or GP but tech's right hand man?? you all know how much better he's made tech's music since he came on the scene.. you should buy the album for that reason alone!! pay Kali some respect people! support your artists!!!
Yes, but overall record sales are horrible.
Downloading=the new previewing. Fuck-a-snippet.
Major labels and CD retail stores hate, but maybe if artists put out an album worth buying, people wouldn't just download. Myself, along with a lot of other people will download the shit, and if it's worth the $10, we'll pick it up somewhere. Sadly, often..the product ends up not being worth the money. That's why the majority of my CD collection consists of drops pre-2000.
Amazon's so successful because they don't just sell cd's.
Like you said...they sell a variety of things.
I see the point you're trying to make though..I'm just saying...

like LoFa said I aint buyin the album just because it's Krizz Kaliko... wtf... I work hard for my money and I expect the same from an artist if they want it... I'm not sayin Kaliko didn't work hard on this album, I'm sayin if I aint feelin it I aint buyin it...
and yeah, sometimes I'll download an album, but if I'm feelin it I ALWAYS buy it... mostly because I'm too lazy to burn CD's and I'm old school with a CD collection in the hundreds, none burned... that's actually the same way most the people I know are, they may download something but if they're feelin it they shell out the $12 for the actual album
in the end, everybody should just stfu until the actual album drops

well if 15 secs of every song sounds wack tio them then why shouldnt they have there doubts? i mean i find it pretty good so i'll give it a listen but if i aint feelin it then i'll just dl the next album that comes out in 10 yrs.
hey man, tech just told me you should Kill yourself. so what are you waiting for? remember this is tech saying this and he wants it done with a razor BTW. so make tech proud

"We are your future"--Strange Music tagline
Saying "you should buy the album for that reason alone" isn't quite the future I expected from Strange Music. Tech recently said something along the lines of nobody else being able to make music like Strange Music. That is the future I expect from Strange. It don't work both ways. Seeing that you seem sincere in the success of Strange, any statements about "everyone that is actually a big enough fan of tech n9ne to come to this forum should be" is quite shortsighted. He, the person, is better served to be known as one who puts out excellent albums instead of one who makes a few sales because he is a right hand man, a Tito so to say. Strange is better than that, and after hearing Kutt's Flamez, and how he was showcased with Tech playing support, this is the label that can have no Tito's and all Michaels.
(Michael of the Thriller album you jokesters
wow now i remember why i just come here for info and don't post at all its not worth it. and i don't know what in that post made you think i said go buy the album cause tech said so.. thats not at all what i was saying I'm just saying everyone that comes to this forum are his biggest fans.. definitely the cream of the crop.. it just seems to me that if you take the time to come to this forum cause you feel that strongly about SM i would just expect everyone to buy this album. you guys seriously don't expect this album to be worth $10-18 thats basically the point i'm trying to make. I'm not making a general point about all albums. i would never go buy anything just cause tech said so. i guess i just feel so strongly about Kali's past works that i could buy the album just based on that. but thats just how i feel.. i will go back to lurking now.. sorry all
oh yeah and Krazee i had mad respect for you being one of the only people on this forum from boston tech fans out here are few and far between. we need to stick together.. you shouldnt be telling me to kill myself bro
