Celine releases go Green!


Recommended Posts

Posted

I received my 'Green' packaging version of ATW today. Its EXTREMELY light and comes in a slipcase with no booklet (they are saving trees here, you CAN download it). There is no new material but its was only 8 bucks at WalMart! The liner notes are available here :

Compete with pdf format booklets (much like the digital ones iTunes uses)!!

 

All in all, its a nicely put together package, expecially for the price! I will scan it once I get home. :flowers:

Nice! the forum is going green too. :icon_mrgreen:

 

yea and before that it was going Mariah :mdr:

is it just me, or are these new "green" packages just a way for the labels to save money and for consumers to end up with packaging that's about as sturdy as newsprint? i'm not digging this new trend...

 

that said, sony legacy did include new liner notes with the re-release of LTAL. i know, cause i got to write them!

 

cheers-

I don't like this cheap editions. Not as nice as the collectors editions of ANDHC and TAST that also were released by Legacy. And they called them also "eco friendly" packages -_-

Yeah, I saw this at Wal Mart a couple of days ago and last night, and I didn't get it...I didn't like it at all! Plus, I don't need that album, I already have it from the original release...it was way to flimsy for me... -_-

Hey - I just wish they started doing this YEARS ago before I started buying all my non-Celine stuff digitally. And for the record, you can snap it in two with just one hand :)

Go Green is not about booklets with lots of pictures and glossy paper, is about the environment saving trees and less consuming energy while processing them... believe soon most of the music will be like this is not digital...

Oh so I guess thats why they re-released ATW because you know EVERYONE has bought up all the CD's they already have made with the plastic and booklets in them, so they needed to make more to get to those people who do not have a copy...what a waste, It isn't technically "eco friendly" when they still have all the plastic albums still on the shelf. :msn-wink:

 

Get what I mean?

Oh yeah, go for it, when all the plastic copies are out of stock. It just would make more sense to release new albums with this "Go Green" paper...not re-release... :hmm:

Jeeze, we Sony-bashed Celine fans are cynical! LOL! Am I the only one who sees these releases as a good thing? They are a cheap way to re-buy scratched or lost albums or to buy the album for the first time. I mean, I know Sony re-releases her stuff all the time (mostly with no extras) but in this case, I think its a good thing. Is Sony capitalizing on the 'Green' movement? Yes. Is that necessarily a bad thing for the environment or Celine? No. ATW is still a great seller for Celine and if this helps move it up in the 'bestsellers of all time' list, then thats a good thing too.

 

While I usually hate Sony's re-releases (I buy them anyway), this one is cool by me :clap:

 

Here's the scan : more coming

This is the US release. It does not include Think Twice or Immortality (which sucks, cause now I have to import one from the UK). The print is perfect, the scans are not the highest quality but I didn't want to be scanning all night.

I'm glad that these CDs are going green. Could they at least make them more durable as well?

I prefer beeing completely green and buying it on iTunes! But i would be great if every album could come with a Digital Booklet, we make them save a lot of money so it would be great to have at least a PDF booklet..

I hardly see how this is helping the environment. I mean, if it were ORIGINALLY released like that, it would be different...but it's already had its original release so the damage is done. I also think this is a ploy to get people who are less intelligent to buy ANOTHER copy of the exact same thing they already bought, except with a different case. There's no way in hell I'm falling for it. I already have this album...I have no need to buy another copy...especially when it's the EXACT same thing.

:yes: And that was what I was saying...it isn't doing anything good, if anything its bad, because people will buy these and leave the plastic albums that are left of ATW on the shelf to just sit..what is the purpose of that? Weird... :hmm:

I don't understand the animocity towards this release, at all. I dont think there's anything to 'fall for'. If the average consumer wants 'All The Way', they can buy this version very cheap without all the bells and whistles. Whats to fall for here? If the average consumer wants the hard case with the booklet, they can buy it at the normal price. By the way, on US iTunes, you can only buy the tracks individually which adds up to over $16.00! I never thought I would see the day where I felt the need to stick up for Sony's actions but in this case I am.

 

And as for the "people who are less intelligent" comment, my child 'Jeffie', think before you speak! And I'll leave it at that...

I hope you are not upset with me...I honestly am just stating my opinions,...if you want to buy it, then by all means buy it, it just makes more sense to me to make a copy of your ALREADY OWNED CD, then you would save money AND trees. :w00t:
