>If you'd put that great track that you would buy the single-sided EP for, on a three-track EP with two average tracks that you wouldn't think of buying the EP for, the three-tracker would sell a lot more copies than the one-tracker even though it's the exact same great track that people buy it for.
So doing the one-sided or double-track stuff makes people much more calculative than they would be normally, and one end result of that attitude is bootlegging. That's well put Otto. Never really thought of it like that... Just picking up on that though, I wonder if he makes the conscious decision to put one sided stuff out like that due to the fact he can make a little bit more money, or whether it's a case of "well, I need to put a record out" and he only has one track that he's satisfied with at that time, and doesn't want to wait a couple of months till he's finished something else? To be honest, I always thought it was a money making thing, but thinking about it, it could be the latter just as much as the former? _________________________________________________________________ --------------------- End of message text -------------------- This e-mail is sent by the above named in their individual, non-business capacity and is not on behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers.
