THIS SHIT HAS GOT TO STOP.
I guess it's meant well: some pictures on the CD, maybe a music video and lyrics, maybe a nice-looking Flash-based presentation with lots of stuff for hardcore fans to enjoy, or maybe just a retarded little music player.
But goddammit, I buy a CD for its music. Not to have the CD fail to register as music in the majority of CD players (mainly the ones with a "shuffle" function). If they want to give the paying fans a little extra, just limit it to an access code for a website inside the case. MUSIC! Just music. If I need more I'll look it up.
Oh, to not seem as if this is an egocentric rant: don't
you hate this as well?
