arnold layne Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 (edited) So I pre-ordered Ozzy Osbourne’s new album “Black Rain”. Only to get an email from Best Buy saying that the item is backordered. Now apparently, there are two separate versions of “Black Rain”.I ordered a cheaper version of the album naturally for about a two dollar discount compared to the other version. So now I have to wait for an additional 1 to 2 weeks for a bloody album? I could have ordered the other version and it could be shipped out on the following day! The cheaper version, the one I purchased apparently has a chance of winning a free ticket to Ozzfest. I don’t care! I want the album! Why would they make the album with an Ozzfest promotion cheaper? It doesn’t make any sense.So the way I put it, I completely made a terrible mistake by ordering the cheaper version of an album instead of the other album “worth” 2 dollars more.I wish I could drive.

Powerage5 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Erm, and doesn't it come with free Ozzfest tickets anyway?Get the Japanese version, bonus track Aww, there were bonus tracks? Damn. And speaking of the new album, the whole slipcase packaging sucks. Seriosuly, it's 2007, in this day and age the only people who use slipcases are shitty garage bands. I bet it was Sharon's idea.

Randy Lahey Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I'd download the album if I were you as other than the first it fucking sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman24 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 (edited) Erm, and doesn't it come with free Ozzfest tickets anyway?Get the Japanese version, bonus track Why do the Japanese or Korean versions always have bonus tracks? I probably have the European version, mine has 10 songs. Anyway, good album. Edited May 23, 2007 by Iceman24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like how South Park claimed they sold their souls to be good at video games, maybe that also counted for extra bonus tracks? I believe the real reason is to appeal to the mass market, like - "extra"/"bonus" encourages less piracy or something - or just to make them feel special.
