Synopsis

Album Description
The 20th Century Masters series is the best-selling single-artist line in music history and is being re-released by Universal Music Enterprises (UMe) in its ground-breaking, environmentally-friendly packaging format. A first for the music industry, the standard package (both sleeve and tray) will be completely paper-recyclable, continuing the company's long-standing commitment to being "green."To further reduce the amount of paper in the Eco-Pack, the CD booklet will no longer be offered. Official liner notes are easily accessible on the Internet at http://www.ilovethatsong.com/green.UMe is the first North American music company to replace the traditional jewel case with recycled paperboard sleeves and the plastic tray with trays made from PaperFoam®, a new packaging technology from Shorewood Packaging, a business of International Paper, that is paper-recyclable and biodegradable. Shorewood Packaging is the first North American packaging supplier to produce disc trays from PaperFoam®.

CD Reviews

Avoid - Not a real CD, does not rip to MP3.
Jonathan Acheson | Philadelphia, PA USA | 09/18/2006
(1 out of 5 stars)

"While this disc contains a decent selection of Asia's songs, it doesn't actually carry the Compact Disc logo. This usually happens when labels try some bogus copy protection scheme on a disc, and this one is no exception. It looks like they have put a fake, empty data partition on the CD to trip up people who try and rip the tracks to MP3 on their computers.



It's a shame, because this is an otherwise fine collection of songs.



While it is still possible to rip the songs to MP3 (by recording the tracks one at a time and then ripping them), the annoyance involved means you are better off just buying a different greatest hits collection such as the Definitive Collection or Asia Gold.



On a personal note, I also missed the presence of the Roger Dean artwork that graced the original album covers."
