Title: question regarding differences in Canadian version CD releases? (Please clarify
Post by: milkyway09 on July 29, 2012, 09:28:18 PM
I've noticed a couple of times when purchasing used Cds off Amazon.com marketplace (US site), I ended up receiving the Canadian releases of CDs. these are exactly identical to the US pressings right, interms of sound quality/mastering?

Nope its the same except for the coupons... if you look in album notes there's always 20% off coupon for the movies Fubar and Fubar 2.

lol @ the last two replies...


but nah dont trip bruh, nothing is different in the sound/cd quality at all.....i live in canada and have many canadian presses in my collection..i even have doubles of certain albums where one is the US press and the other canadian. Exact same thing thing. Only difference depending on the label will be the distributor in another country and sometimes the barcode. Some barcodes are exactly the same.

where there is a difference iin the sound quality is those fucking awful columbia house presses....i might be tripping but i feel like i have to boost the volume louder to attain the volume of a retail cd...
