Kansas AG Rejects Settlement Discs

Posted by timothy on from the because-these-suck dept.

RWarrior(fobw) writes "Kansas's Attorney General has rejected 1600 CDs by 25 different artist as part of the music industry's anti-trust settlement. Is this a community values issue, a censorship issue, or just crap music being foisted off onto the public as part of a meaningless settlement?"

    What's with all these new records these days? I'm still content with my Weird Al - Bad Hair Day album.

      Al? As in Al Capone?

      Anyway, I am anxiously awaiting Frank Sinatra's next album. The last one was *stereophonic*! Nothing like a little Frank to put some moxie in your step.

    You think the AG would ban the Wizard of Oz as well. Not only is it violent (2 witches die), but the main theme is a young female who wants out of Kansas.

    Of course, maybe even the AG knows you can hide the truth about Kansas.

    Look. Even the people of Topeka http://www.kansas.com/mld/kansas/news/state/930557 4.htm/ can't think of anything good about their city or state!

    The State of Kansas only has to purchase 4 more cds at the regular price over the next 24 months, and all of the cds are absolutely free!
    They merely have to pay $2.79 each for shipping and processing. The selection of the month comes automatically, but the head librarian can return it back to RIAA and they will pay for the shipping.
    They even have a full 10 days to try them, and if the State of Kansas is not completely satisfied, they can return all of the cds and have no further obligation.
