While looking through the cd covers on that website, what really struck me
is the great differences in taste among folks. In many cases, I would have
reversed the order shown on the screens.
One list member indicated that cover appeal is not a reasonable criterion
to use in buying decisions. And I have to agree. But there sure have
been times when it was a criterion in my decision making, although never
standing alone. If it was alone, I'd have almost every cd ECM has ever
issued. I obviously allow my emotions to sometimes factor into the mix,
and I feel fine about it. What's nice about shopping for music, either on
net or at the store, is that I just go with the flow I have at the moment;
it's very spontaneous. That can lead to less than favorable results; I
sometimes receive discs many weeks after ordering them. Every now and
then, I open the package and say to myself - "What did I want this for"?
