Here's a new custom product in a market known for its economies of scale:
http://cnn.com/SHOWBIZ/Music/9911/11/custom.beasties.ap/index.html
"When the three members of the Beastie Boys sat down to pick the songs
that would appear on an upcoming CD career retrospective, they decided to
invite a fourth participant -- their fans.
"Devotees of the rap-rock pioneers are being offered a chance, through
the Internet, to construct their own custom CD compilation of the band's
work that will be mailed to their homes. They can even pick their own
title."
And the cost is only $17.85 for a 2-CD set! No doubt the music industry
is being forced in this direction because people, including some friends of
mine, are burning their own CDs with bootleg copies of their friends CDs or
music downloaded on the Internet, what you might call home fabbing in the
musical dimension.
