Once again Bowie shows that there is so much more to the music business than CDs of albums:
* First he gets me to pay 70 USD for being a member of his web site (so he can market to me... but I feel like I have my money's worth) * Then he gets me to pay $25 so that I go to see a preview of his new CD (so he can market to me... but I feel like I have my money's worth) * The following Monday I buy the CD for $30 (the special edition that was $10 more than the regular one) * Next he sends me this URL through being a member of the davidbowie.com website: http://bowie.fanasylum.com/travel/losangeles.html. I can carry on feeling special and fork out another 1395 USD
You could write a thesis on his commercial lateral thinking. I can't wait for this reactionary period to be over and for teh real movie 'business' to begin.
