so i'm part of the bmg music club
 
i only joined because they had a bunch of jesus and mary chain cd i could get for free. so today i got in the mail a cd that i def. didn't order. i was wondering why they charged me 21 bucks at random.

 


they sent me the new PUDDLE OF SHIT! so i have to return it with a note saying i don't want this fucking cd by tomorrow or i have to keep it.

they are only famous because they misspell mud and their d's are backwards.

$5.00 says they subscribe to bmg too.

if you wanted some JAMC you should have just manned up and stolen it.

that was definitely a good deal.

i already did, but i wanted the actual cds, since i could only get them for like 3 bucks shipping.

they will send you crap everymonth and if you do not return it they will bill you like a motherfucker.

They take advantage of the apathetic people looking for a cheap deal that run rampant in this country.

i tried to stay away from them but they had those jesus and mary chain cds for cheap and i couldn't resist.

I wasn't saying you were apathetic--you could "win", you'll just have to return a ton of shit in a timely fashion. Eventually you'll get stung.

I like when these people ring me up with the 'what kind of music are you into?' sales pitch. Actually, they usually start with 'how much do you spend on music a month?' I double my usual spending, which sets their hearts racing. I then proceed to list far too many things they've never heard of. I deplore cunts that do the 'let's name too many obscure things' game, but it's fun in the face of a sales pitch. Try it sometime.

erm, just a silly remark. get rid of those postal service mail things like bmg and trot down to yr local music store and order them! all you need is a catalogue number and jamc albums are pretty cheap now. those mail deelies are just a rip off no matter how cheap they may sound at first!

Technically, I am still a member of BMG....I joined in like 1994. All you have to do is tell them that you don't want them to send you the selection of the month or whatever and they won't.

Everyneurotic 02.28.2008 04:14 PM

does this really still exist?

...


...actually i mean "music clubs" but i'm asking for both these and puddle of bullshitt.

Puddle of Mudd reminds me of my deluded teenage years, when i listened to a lot of crap.

I remember as a kid I would use other names to start accounts with bmg & columbia house, all I would get was a bunch of metal. They sent me a letter like every 2 weeks & I sent them a letter back telling them I was a minor & I never heard from them again...

that's how i got 50 percent of my sonic youth cds back in the 90's.

i also got gang of four's solid gold for 99 cents out of their bin.
