its the same promo disc the radio stations have so i presume its not illegal. But i would imagine the disc is not for re-sale, in which case it would make it illegal..........sort of! $38 for one song? no thank you, i rather pay $15 for 14 songs and wait its now at $102.....................some wealthy die hards out there.....its a fucking cool item to have just now, but i rekon in a few months they will be about $15 or so

I think a collector is a collector.
If someone wants to pay 150 bucks for a promo CD, then it is worth that much for the collector. I don't see any reason for bashing people who are paying that ammount of money for an item.
Other people spend hundreds of dollars on cigarettes, others drink, others are paying whores, others are addicted to cars ... ... Where is the difference?
It's not like someone is robbing someone else out in order to be able to buy that item. It's up to everyone to do what they want with their money.

It's an acetate promo, ain't a scam. i just got a copy, so it's correct that the back is blue colored and the front is kinda blocked printed?

i have 1 with cover (directly given to me by Universal) but also bought the radio promo....without cover etc..so that's why i want to know whether it's real or not since the quality of the disc and print is very low/bad.

The "CD Acetate" When mastering to CD the Recordable CD or CDR is used in a similar way to acetates, with the sound being checked from a CDR. In the early days of the CD some dealers sold these CDRs for very high prices and referred to then as "CD Acetates". The CDs used genuinely in studio or pressing plant are just as rare as acetates, however the growing availability CD Recorders has made them very easy to duplicate of forge. CDRs have also become so cheap that they are often used instead of promos, with hundreds being manufactured and distributed. The term CD Acetate has not survived http://www.moremusic.co.uk/links/features/acetate.htm#cd

i see what you mean about the blue tinting which is different to mine....... the black text looks to be in blocks / pixelated....... rather than smoothed edges but that could just be the camera. How does the text compare against your other one? are there any numbers / codes in the middle near the hole you could have the acetate which would account for the blue.... but i dont have one to compare with yours.
