Maybe the folks over at D1.com should hire Crow, Raven, and some of us to do all that for them, since they can't to seem to get their collective act together. How does this affect the band, though? Someone had to come up with the idea initially ("hey let's put up exclusive content and include a code with a CD so fans can access it!"). I know, or am at least pretty sure that Disturbed doesn't want to disappoint their fans, but D1.com and Warner Bros. Records do that on a regular basis with what they're doing as far as "exclusive" content is concerned.
As a broadcaster (currently not in the industry by choice so I could go back to school), I was always told to "tease and promote" then deliver, and WBR and D1.com don't do that. The got the "tease and promote" (or at least the "tease" part) concept down. Now they need to either live up to what they're promoting, or stop doing it all together. Or allow an outside source to do it if they won't.
Just my .02US....
