So theres not one, not two, but three different editions of her CD.

So fans either have to buy all 3 or miss out on something.

I know its more her management that have allowed this to happen, but it really should be clamped down on and be made illegal. If your releasing an album once a year, make it a double CD, and treat your loyal fans.

And they wonder why piracy is through the roof!

Even as a major kylie fan i would never buy the album or single twice, who would do that.

I'm not a fan of kylie but I've never bought anything more than once. Why do that?!? waste of money. I know people who do though.

Did you hear about that idiot who got 250 copies of christina aguilera's Bionic? that person has idiot written across their forehead, surely?!?

thats ridculous HAHAH, 2 i can understand just about but 250. Kind of destroys the fact that 249 of her first weeks sales were completely pointless.

Fans do this kind of thing all the time,
I've seen these kind of campaigns before - "Let's get So and So to number 1 " where fans admit to buying multiple copies of singles/albums and claiming to have bought them for everyone they know too.

It must be great to have money to waste.

The Christina fan actually bought those copies so he could sell them to people who couldn't get ahold of it in their country, the media twisted the story.
