#3961 Re: The Garden » So it looks like Joe Biden is Obama's VP choice » 944 weeks ago
He makes more than that a year. Does he donate his entire salary to charity??
I'm not falling for the coming wave of propaganda.
Article from March 2007 about it:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/co … 05_pf.html
I don't know why they would feel a need to propagandize something like that back in March 2007, but hey, suit yourself.

Obama and Biden cant relate to the working class either. They are all elitists.
McCain really needs to think hard on who he picks. His choice will make or break this election.
Biden is ok but I'm not fond of the choice. I know he was on my list of choices for Obama, but I think someone else should have been chosen.
Matthews on Hardball reported that Biden's net worth is $100,000-150,000. That's pretty impressive on the non-elitist front for a senator.

For someone who likes Obama you sure hate change.:laugh:
What do you not like?
I don't necessarily like Obama that much. Mostly just hate Bush and company, including McCain, Mr. Bomb Iran. I've got big problems with Obama on taxes, abortion, offshore drilling, ANWR, environmentalism, etc. but the potential for a military draft trumps everything since I don't want to get shipped off to war. And yes, I think starting a war with Iran while our troops are stretched so thin right now will require a military draft. And it scares the hell out of me, more than anything Obama could ever do.

#3965 Re: Guns N' Roses » GNR's 'Democracy' To Be Retail Exclusive? » 945 weeks ago
honestly if they do do this, I'll end up buying the unedited version on iTunes, and burn my own disc lol, but I would try and find an unedited physical copy too just because of what this is.
That's the problem. If they have an exclusive deal with Wal-Mart, you won't be able to buy it on iTunes. Now, I am hoping the album doesn't even need a P.A. label and thus it won't matter if Wal-Mart is the only place selling it.

I don't have any issues with those two retailers killing mom and pop shops. I have a big problem with Best Buy's pricing, which is almost always a big ripoff compared to the same items at Wal-Mart, Amazon, etc. and I have a problem with Wal-Mart's music retail business because they refuse to sell the parental advisory version of any album while selling Rated R DVD's. If that isn't hypocrisy, I don't know what is.

There's nothing at all to worry about.. the album is coming out. Seriously. And to think we would only get the clean version is ridiculous
That is an incorrect assumption. Garth Brooks' music is not available on iTunes. You can only buy it at Wal-Mart.
Garth's music WAS only available at Wal-Mart. Their deal is over. Now that it is, his music is on iTunes, it wasn't prior.
I just searched for him on iTunes and his stuff is NOT on there. It's a bunch of tribute band crap. You are correct that his deal is over with Wal-Mart because Amazon has plenty of his stuff available to purchase new instead of used.

Dude, the album is coming out soon. Who the heck cares where it's coming out. GNR is not dangerous at all anymore and even if they were where do you suggest they sell it? At a biker gang hideout?
If you don't like it, just illegally download it. Or get it on itunes
You do understand the concept of exclusivity, right? An exclusive deal at Wal-Mart means that no one will be able to purchase it on iTunes. It also means that a ripped copy available for illegal download would come from Wal-Mart. Let's just hope the damn album itself does not need a parental advisory if they decide to go exclusive with Wal-Mart. Because I can guarantee you will not be 100% satisfied if the ONLY version available for the public to listen to is edited. Good thing is most of the leaks are clean.

First week all cds are 9.99 at best buy. U cant beat that. With Amazon, after u pay the shipping on a CD, u arent saving anything and at Best Buy you get the CD the day of.
That's why you buy $25 or higher worth of merchandise from Amazon and you get free shipping. Plus even if you pay shipping, it's around the same price as the SALES TAX that Best Buy charges (something Amazon does not do for most states). Another thing, if you are anticipating a CD, all you have to do is pre-order it from Amazon. They give you a price guarantee that if the price drops between the time you pre-order (sometimes months in advance for CD's/DVD's), they will refund your credit/debit card the amount that the price dropped. And in many cases, the initial pre-order price is a lot better than the actual price on the day the item is released. For instance, back in 2005 I pre-ordered Batman Begins 2-disc DVD months in advance at a price of $15. But by the time the thing was released, Amazon and everyone else (Wal-Mart, Best Buy) was selling it for $25-30. The cool thing about pre-ordering from them is that you'll usually get your item delivered the day it's released in retail stores. That's exactly what happened when I pre-ordered that Batman Begins DVD.
