We're talking about 18 cents per track, folks. Of course, that's assuming that you like or enjoy all 100 tracks.My primary purpose here was to create a playist or playlists featuring the authentic orchestral sounds of the roaring twenties - the high-spirited, exuberant wow wow wow, doo wacka doo, jazzy melodies that are unique to this era.

For an internet based business, Amazon, you sure are parochial and strange sometimes. Is my money not as good as anyone else's here (yes, the AUD is worth more than the USD now)? Hasn't the copyright period on these lovely tunes expired long ago? Seriously, who the hell is benefiting from this feeble nonsense? |
