If u purchased the cd at Target, and this is what the site is all about, what the hell did u pay $77 for? This is a straight theft of money. Plain and simple.
Why wasn't this so called spoiler put up BEFORE U joined? Now way I would have wasted $77 for this.

how is it theft?

the cd in target is only $12. the membership is only $77 for a year and gives you a download non pysical copy included in the membership, but surely most fans would want an actual cd, and considering it's only $12 for the cd, if you had known you would get it before you bought the cd, would you not bother paying an extra $12 for the cd as you had bought the membership for a year?

there are differences between the download version of lotusflow3r and the retail cd, each has one different track. it sounds like you are moaning over nothing really. $12 for 3 cds is cheap

You mean you chose to shell out $77 for a product you had no clue about, and you're calling it a theft? lol
I am not particularly happy with the content at this point, but I'll wait until the end of my year membership before I raise hell.

When you pay for a 3 year subscription for a magazine, you don't get all 36 issues up front, do you?

He hasn't added a video to the globe thingie since april 11th.
So he must be already losing interest.
Anybody who can explain a different scenario?

https://www.lotusflow3r.c...3b0mb.html

This 'spoiler' was posted very shortly after the site opened.

It was simply posted to explain to those people that did not understanbd how to access the site to subscribe and after numerous people posted on websites that they did not understand what 'year' and 'date' to type into the ticket.

I'm not sure what else you think you the 'spoiler' is about - it wasn't intended to be a 'disclaimer'.
.

Anyone that signed up to the site was able to read the full terms and conditions and decide whether to join or not in advance.

what word? what are you on about? only a month has passed since the club opened and there are 52 videos including a few never seen before, 3 brand new albums, and for some, tickets to concerts, including free tickets to 4 seperate tv performances, plus tickets to the 3 shows in LA, also a free t shirt for the first few people to sign up, which is probably most of the members so far. not bad for the first month of a $77 annual membership

Well, I get the idea of feeling "ripped off", but it's all a choice that we have. I made my decision to join to get the albums a few days early in wav and mp3 format. My biggest complaint is that, as a consumer, $77 for videos is not worth it. Especially if I don't have the option to download them in different formats.

In some ways, he is stiffing it to WB. He's pretty much selling his old material (the old warner videos) on the down-low and avoiding them getting any money for it.

I am trying to be optimistic about the site, but from what I'm seeing so far, my outlook is not so bright.

the newspaper thing has been up since around week one, as so many people couldn't figure out how to join the site or google how to do it from a number of fan sites. it's hardly a disclaimer. being a regular poster on the org you surely must have known what was available on the site from the very first day it went live, or could have read here to find out first

It's a crap website.

well you didn't have to join

and you still don't know what you are going to get for the next 11 months


you know he rents an expensive house in beverley hills, his rent for one month is probably more money that you will ever make in your lifetime, so he needs every penny he can get from the website
