instead of wasting money on rubbish like this SonyBMG should be spending money on recruiting new and innovative artists. Ditch the old and embrace the new and exciting, nobody wants fucking rehashes of Celine Dion, no one gives a shit about Jessica Simpson’s little sister…hell no one gives a shit about Jessica Simpson….Stop trying to hang onto your little bit of demographic you have left, stop counting on 12 year olds to beg their parents for stupid fucking sound cards and CD’s. You look desperate, Sony, get some of your dignity back and embrace the music not the cash.

Just wanted to say that I’m linking to this, ’cause it CRACKED ME UP that it was the first thing I found on the ‘net when I was searching for “Musicpass”. I work at FYE (don’t hate the player, just the game), and we’d gotten an e-mail yesterday about this “exciting new service” that our customers would basically be knocking the doors down to get their hands on…I’d heard of this Sony BMG crapfest but didn’t know that it was the same thing.

Don’t forget: Sony BMG also cooked up the whole “Ringle” thing a few months ago. If you don’t know what the heck a Ringle is, it was basically this: a CD single with a Ringtone built into it. The singles contained anywhere from 2 to 4 songs on them as usual and would have retailed for about $4.99/$5.99 and would include 1 or 2 ringtones and a desktop wallpaper for your phone (whoo-hoo!). Anyway, there was some kind of problem with them (maybe, the fact that they didn’t work with all phones/phone services? or that the CD sleeves didn’t list which phones/phone services they DID work with? Or that the initial titles were just as middle of the road as those above?)

Anyway, we’d gotten a bunch of them in a HUGE shipment in early October for a launch date of late October. I was horrified when I opened the boxes and realized what they were (initial press releases had mentioned only Best Buy and Wal-Mart as the retailers carrying these things). I was the only one in the store who’d heard of them. About a week before they were supposed to launch, we got e-mails in the store telling us to hold off on them because there was some sort of “technical” problem with them and we were going to be sending them back. We sent them back about a week later and haven’t heard them mentioned again. I gather that part of the “technical” problem was the backlash on the blogosphere and I’m sure that this Musicpass thing will be just as stillborn (especially in lieu of the Sony BMG/Amazon deal)…

Sony is a case study for Ted Sturgeon’s law cross-bred with the Strive For Excellence philosophy.

99% of everything is crap.

Sony succeeds at Excellence in everything they do.

Therefore, 99 percent of what they do is not just crap, but spectacularly, profoundly, stupidly crap.

And the other 1 percent is really really good.

And finally, Sony wakes up and joins the DRM free revolution:
