- You should have inverted both the Scuglia and Curtis factors. Otherwise
- the more expensive the cd, the better.
-
- Then again, there is something in that. If I pay $93 for a Shamen
- cd single then the quality of the single must be really high. So
- (ignoring the fact that I'd be a fucking idiot to buy it) a seven
- minute cd costing $93 would rate phenomenally on the Curtis scale.
-
- Just imagine, $13 a minute, 22c per secong. Now that's quality!
- Must be Goode.
