Title: RE: Ted's reviews...

Actually, there's little to no interest in the research.  Promo CDs act as
de facto payola for writers/DJs/hipsters who don't get much in the way of
salary, but can count on a few hundred each month tax-free, courtesy of the
local used CD store.  In the same way that one of the attractive qualities
of money is that it's universally accepted and transferable, so do promo CDs
act as a non-monetary form of exchange within the music world.  Each CD
might as well be a $5 bill, with no income tax attached.

** right and in the end the artists who sell any discs at all will have that sort of thing count as recoupable costs against what they should've made.
