Oh my gosh.....when did buying music become so technologically difficult???? What happened to the days when you just picked up the album and you were all set and if you were really advanced you recorded it to cassette ! amaryll <amaryll(a)norwoodlight.co To: "R. M.

If I understand correctly, digipacks are the folders that are that firm, laminated cardboard that have a plastic insert embedded for the disc instead of the traditional jewelcase. For example, the soul cages was originally released in a digipak instead of a jewel case. Functionally, the digipak for this release is just a limited edition special packaging as I have read and understand. The SACD hybrid is sort of a dual encoded disc that plays both in 2 channel traditional cd player (like your car or whatever) and also plays 5.1 channel in your SACD enhanced DVD player (about $170 at best buy). I think the SACD players are real, real popular in Japan and are sort of a novelty for the most part in North America. >From: "Rob Memme" <rmemme(a)sympatico.ca> >To: <police(a)mailman.xmission.com> >Subject: [Police] Sacred Love CD options >Date: Sun, 17 Aug 2003 18:36:46 -0600 > >Hi all, >Sorry if this is a stupid question but I've noticed on Amazon that there >are several versions of SL available.

Re: [Police] Sting's "Desert Rose" used on Discovery Channel

Yeah. I noticed that and meant to mention it on the board. I love the part where Bart's like -- "The only natural enemy of the hole is the pile." I about lost it when I heard that. It's amazing how The Simpsons is such a well written show that they would notice and incorporate the fact that Sting has done 2 soundtracks for IMAX films. Ross

I watched an old Simpsons last night and they used the opening notes of Fragile as the background for a documentary IMAX film called something like, The World's Best Holes (it was about canyons and dolphin blowholes, etc.) Very funny!

Sting's "Desert Rose" used on Discovery Channel

I caught the preview for the Discovery Channel's documentary on Queen Nefertiti ("Nefertiti Resurrected") and in the background they're using a sample from "Desert Rose"...appropriate, in a way!

Great, Rob, just the question I wanted to ask. I'm trying to decide what to hold out for beside the usual US release! Whoever is in the know, please reply to all!
