The Cure Advise Fans Not To Buy EP was a top story for this week. Here it is again: (antiMusic) The Cure isn't happy about their fans being asked to pay full album price for their latest remix EP. They issued the following statement on their website earlier this week: Please don't buy hypnologic states EP from iTunes for £7.99 it is absurd! TMU has managed to fuck this up to another level! My email to them today is below its easier than writing it out again nicely... (those offended by colourful language look away now)Dear... I fucking despair again. Hypnagogic States Pp is now up on UK iTunes... 5 tracks for £7.99? For fucks sake! And the package is completely missing the extra bonus track (65dos alt remix of "the only one") so you can buy the four remixes by 30stm/afi/mcr/fob individually for 79p each... But you only get the 65dos "exploding head syndrome" remix of all four singles if you pay £7.99 for "the album"... Ie you are being asked to pay £4.83 for the 65dos remix... !!! Who the fuck is going to pay this and not feel totally ripped off? It's not a fucking album! It's a 5 track EP and you are supposed to get an extra free track (the 65dos remix of "the only one") if you buy it as a 5 track EP and its supposed to cost less if you buy it as a 5 track EP than if you buy the 5 tracks individually... - read more
