Has anyone used Prince's "bundling" technqiue yet?

I know several artists were talking about "bundling" ticket sales and CDs; but with the option of not purchasing the CD with the ticket.

Has anyone followed through yet?

I know that the Cure did it, and a few other smaller rock bands that most people have never heard of. But i think it will become more prominent in the next few years...Prince may have finally started a trend that won't get him ridiculed...

What was the "purchase" rate with the Cure tickets? Any info on that? Did it affect the chart position of their album?
