Guero on iTunes
I’ve been reading all of the reviews of Beck’s latest CD and they’re all good. I’ve been looking forward to getting his latest disc for a while now but wait! There are two.
The regular CD costs $12.99 and then there is a deluxe DVD version that has a second bonus disc of remixes, Dolby Digital 5.1 audio, videos , a book and on and on. Do I reall want to spend $31.99 for an audio CD?
I never listen to audio only CDs in my home theatre. I spend most of my time listening to music at my computer or on my iPod. It would be nice to have the jewel case with liner notes but I have hundreds of CDs crowding my house and office.
iTunes. I can download Guero for $9.99. I could download 3 albums or 3 songs for the cost of one deluxe Beck DVD.
I downloaded Guero, saved a bunch of money and have listened to the album about 3 times today.

Did you purchase the deluxe edition from iTunes? The Boards of Canada remix of Broken Drum is especially good but it only comes as part of the deluxe set.

Hmm. iTunes doesn’t have the “deluxe” version of Guero. I just downloaded the regular album which retails at Future Shop for $12.99.
I did purchase the remix of “Hell Yes” by 8-Bit from iTunes. I like it a lot better than the album version. I think it is also the remix used in the “Hell Yes” video.
Maybe “Broken” will be available as a remix in the future? Hope so. I’d like to hear it.
