yeah the thing with companies isnt if they make a profit....its how much profit they make....and dont even talk about breaking even
for instance a company could project that they will make a certain percentage of profits for a fiscal year....if they make less profit then they anticipated, even though it may still be a profit at the end of the year, if its not as high as they anticipated they basically consider it a loss, and layoffs and spending cutbacks and whatever else could occur.
greedy bitches 
corporations piss me off

Just for the record, there is not one legal document out there to the public that suggests Gnr owes Uni/Geffen three albums of original material plus a GH-PURE SPECULATION and heresay-science fiction in my opinion. All legal documents that we have seen for the GH lawsuit suggest that the album was specifically put out because Axl wouldn't turn over CD. I guarantee you that record was put out to recoup funds lost to CD. No doubt in my mind. The GH documents clearly suggest that they expect Axl to give them one album of original material. In the end, we have no idea what the actual 1998 amendment to the original contract says about what is owed and what is not owed regarding album releases. Facts speak for themselves, they put out the GH against the artists wishes and immediately cut off funds for CD. I think that was their way of saying, we'll chalk this up as a loss and recoup the loss through WORLDWIDE sales of GH. Since worldwide sales are at least 8 million, at a net profit of $2 a disc, they easily make their money back.
all true but in regards to the bolded part....yes it was put out to recoup the costs of CD, but in reality they could have released GH and CD and been that much farter ahead...i was saying from a buisness point of veiw that the CD money is still a lost expense untill CD is actually released, cuz that money was spent on CD ... not on GH, as you can plainly see from the packaging of the peice of shit

Eminem will be huge too...maybe not for gnr fans but media wise it will be a monster...prolly biggest album of the year
I'm looking forward to see what metallica does...but i'm not rushing out and buying it like i did with st anger, i'll dl it first then buy if its decent
I imagine i'll get the Greenday album cuz my wife loves them
I wont be getting U2, and before we talk gnr releasing somethign lets let the year unfold a bit
#12148 Re: Guns N' Roses » Universal Definitely Got Most If Not All Their Money Back » 983 weeks ago
they released it cuz gnr already owed them a GH....as well as 3 studio albums...(apparently is what the contract calls for) and they gave axl a stipulation saying relelase CD by dec 2003 or we'll release a GH of our choosing, as a tactic to get CD out...it didnt work and Slash, DUff and Axl didnt have a leg to stand on in court cuz Axl promised geffen a GH
but james is right....the money for CD was dished out for CD....not a GH so as a corporation they will not look at money recouped, CD is still a loss
