My own personal opinion is... I have respect for the band and all the other people involved, they're entitled to their money and all... but if the stuff is out of print and we want to hear it.. How does putting together a CD hurt them? They're not putting one out so they're not losing any money... and even if they did put one out later on.. me and a bunch of other people would probably buy it anyway... I would really like to see this CD go ahead, and I am willing to contirbute in anyway... There's my to cents...

Doing something like this if non-profit is fine, IF the band is not against the project. However, most of you seem to be saying that you don't care what the band thinks, you're going to do it anyway. If Rachel explicitly says you should drop it, i hope you do.

I'm sorry, but I have to point out that this discussion about the rarities comp is exactly what I said would happen last week. This is what always happens.
