Record Label Adds PS2 Game To Album

Thanks to the San Jose Mercury News/AP for their article discussing Atlantic Records' addition of an abridged, playable PlayStation 2 game to a new music album, due out next month. According to the article: "The first 1 million copies of P.O.D.'s fifth record, "Payable on Death," will come with a version of "Amplitude," a game that allows players to remix a collection of pop songs." Interestingly, "The abridged version of the game will only have a P.O.D. song called 'Space'", a track that wasn't available on the original release of the Sony-published music game, and the president of the record company says: "Atlantic Records has an opportunity with this because this technology is not copyable, it's not downloadable, it's not swappable."
