Columbia Sends Fans Scrambling

Editorial/May 2007

   

Today was the day Barbra's "Streisand Live in Concert 2006" album was released. If you want to own all of the audio (and bonus video track) that just became available, then be prepared to buy the album three times.

 

   

Bonus Tracks All Over Town

May 8, 2007

Many Streisand fans across the US began their day with a trip to their local Barnes & Nobles to be the first in line to buy the official CD release of "Streisand Live In Concert 2006." A highly publicized "exclusive bonus" cut of "When The Sun Comes Out" was offered. So as fans headed for the registers to pay for this premium-priced bonus CD, it was a mission accomplished. Or was it?

As the day progressed, it became known that different bonuses were available at different retailers. So, fans who wanted to own all of the available audio (and bonus video) from the concert had to scramble to make multiple purchases of the new CD at three different retailers.

But it is Barbra, so like many of you, we traveled all over town to buy the new album three times, shelling out over $55 with tax.
