Okay, I'm officially in the lead for dumbest-sounding question of 2008! Thanks for clarifying...
>> How often do they include CD's?
> Occasionally. I remember seeing a Bjork one a couple of years back, and a 30 years of Punk one. Some of the Sunday tabloids, such as The Mail on Sunday (insert vomiting picture here) are always giving away freebies
There are a ton of CD's like this on Ebay, from the Times, Mail, and Telegraph, so I was wondering if there is any kind of routine to their distribution, or if they're totally random.
>> Have any American newspapers distributed CD's to their readers?
> Not that I've heard of but didn't the Vancouver Sun do this?
Don't know, but based on the lack of responses, I will assume that this notion of giving out CD's in newspapers is primarily a British phenomenon. Or maybe people are just too busy arguing about whether they should be arguing about John Borack's book, which I'm waiting for Bruce to ship!
Be seeing you,
Bill
