If you don't buy music, that's fine with me, I just think it is kind of funny that you refuse to pay for a piece of art by b0lly because of his personality, whereas every time you put gas in your car you are helping to rape the world.

i hope you aren't referring to me when you say "you guys". i'm going to buy the shit out of these, and oceania, providing i like at least half the songs.

[redbreegull]

no one in particular, just the general sentiment of not wanting to buy anything he releases in the future (regardless of quality) based on his personality. I'm not necessarily saying I think it is stupid to not buy something because of someone's behavior, I'm just wondering what the point is when we all inevitably support way more evil, malignant people than Billy every day because we are too lazy to change where we shop, where we eat, and what products we buy.

Billy Corgan actually releases something worth owning and the attitude is, "that guy is a dick to his old friends, I won't pay for it." seems pretty silly

[redbreegull]

In terms of motivation for releasing more old shit, I wasn't even talking in terms of cash. I honestly don't believe money is that big a deal to Billy. It's all about the fame, the public consciousness for him. So if you want him to release more good old music, buy the album. duh.

"Record sales are something you can point to."

i bike and take public transit. does not apply.

[Dogfighter28]

i really want the dvd footage, but i will buy the vinyl only probably, and i dont expect that version to have anything other than the original tracklist remastered. oh well

[iPumpkin]

All that for $29? Shut up and take my money Bill!

[redbreegull]

fuck you futureboy you annoying pussy bitch

[Reyngel]

I'm thinking the Mellon Collie reissue might be pretty expensive, especially since there are so many extras that could be featured. Adore too.

And I'd pay a good amount of money for both.

I'd really love to see a lot of footage of Billy recording Adore, especially since he was at the helm of most of the production in the studio. Was such a new area for the band to go, and it'd be nice if the fans could see more than that Adore documentary showed a while back.

do you also not have a bank account

do you also not pay utilities to energy companies

do you also not pay phone and internet bills to telecommunications companies who
have outsourced an uncountable number of jobs to developing countries so they can make cheap profit raping workers in the face

do you also not pay taxes to fund the American wars in the Middle East which have resulted in the deaths of 250,000+ innocent civilians

I thought he mentioned releasing PCM files a few weeks ago

[redbreegull]

lol yeah I couldn't really give a shit about the newest tech stuff and gadgets and such, I have never even heard of blu ray audio.

[Pizza Club]

Or Kerry did

[redbreegull]

WHAT IS PCM

[T&T]

CD's are PCM, so i'm not sure what you're going on about....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-code_modulation

[brendo_91]

wav/aiff are both pcm as well.

I think it is funny how much people bitch about audio quality on here, but don't even know about/ or care about the ways music should be delivered these days

its like watching a sddvd on a crt 4:3 tv vs blu-ray on a pioneer kuro- just completely changes the experience-

he also said he was going to release if all goes wrong on blu-ray, and that sure as shit didn't happen-

the previews for if all goes wrong were HD downloads and the final product was a shitty SD DVD- classic.

[T&T]

is it possible that he said DSD?
cause that's newer technology (newerish?),
but i wouldn't want any of that anyways....

He asked via social media what people want

http://crestfallen.com/2011/08/04/wh...do-you-prefer/

i dont think he stated what he was going to provide

Trent Reznor really seems to be one of the few who is releasing in the DSD/ Blu-ray audio format- I def appreciate it~

Unless the publishing rights were changed, I will assure you they will still receive money from these

I imagine Chad Channing is living alright on Bleach and Incesticide royalties.
