  • Why are people on iTunes so morally opposed to the Radiohead greatest hits album?

    Posted by admin on February 27th, 2010 and filed under album reviews | 5 Comments »

    I was reading the reviews and many were one star rants telling me not to buy the album. I wasn’t planning to, I just wanted to see what was on there. I couldn’t really find a pattern. What’s wrong with the album?

    A lot of people hate Greatest Hits and those sorts of compilations. They think it takes away from the album it cam from. Silly sort of, but I see where they are coming from

      there is nothing wrong with it
      (Btw radiohead is pretty good nice pick)

      but fans are just against any type of Greatest hits album
      and want you to get the original

      and found this out when thinking about buying the Led Zeppelin
      Mothership album on iTunes

      It’s because it was released by Capitol after Radiohead left the label and many fans think that it was simply done to cash in on Radioheads current popularity. Also, because Radiohead themselves had no knowledge or involvment in the release.

      i don’t see why someone wouldn’t buy it… i mean, i love radiohead and i think that having all their "best" (make note of the quotes) songs in one album would be great.

      by the way, nice picture.
