BMG Sale Corner

[Noj]

Thanks Agg! I picked up a 2-disc Sonny Boy Williamson, a Frank Sinatra disc, and a Gato Barbieri live album.

Thanks for the codes, Aggie. I was just about to post that I've pretty much cleaned BMG out of the titles I'm interested in, but then Noj's post reminded me that I still need to pick up the Essential Sonny Boy Williamson...I might get the Canned Heat Uncanned set too.

[Aggie87]

Does it seem like BMG is getting desperate lately? I've been bombarded with "deals" on a weekly basis for the past month or two. With sales of CDs dropping precipitously, they must be starting to wonder where their future business is coming from.

My worry is that they're using these free codes to just clear out their inventory for an eventual shut down...

[GA Russell]

It's been a while since I ordered from BMG.

Today I tried the code from Aggie's August 12 post but it was no longer valid. So then a tried a code from his September 19 post, and it went through.

Thanks Ag!

[Aggie87]

GA - I recommend using the codes fairly quickly when they're posted, I don't know how long they last.

Four more - each is for one free cd:

C8E1

C8E2

C8E3

C8E4

To get the 70% off, Free Shipping offer, enter the promotion code "C8X3" in the box on the left side of our website's homepage and click "apply." But hurry! Promo code is only good until 11/1/08!

This month I actually quit the club for the first time in a long while.

I was just ordering things I sort-of wanted with the free coupons, having already ordered everything I was really enthusiastic about.

Given a limited CD budget, I am better off buying things I REALLY want via Amazon or locally, rather than piddling away the dollars on things I kinda want.

Also, now that BMG has nixed most of the Sony/Columbia catalog, there are fewer and fewer things coming along that I want. That, and the BN titles that do show up seem to stick around for such a short period of time.

Just my experience. Thanks for listening!

Aggie, these are no longer valid. Have you seen any new ones yet?

[Aggie87]

Sorry GA, haven't seen any in a while. Hopefully they'll cough up a few more for us before too long.

Dude, you better get on it!

[GA Russell]

I've grown accustomed to spending $2.79 for my BMG discs!

[Tjazz]

70% Off CDs, plus Free Shipping

D8F1 thru 6

Codes 1 & 2 say that they are for “Today Only!” but I don't know when "today" starts for this sale.

Codes 5 & 6 give this message “Order Now for On-Time Holiday Delivery” as well.

After a quick check, it does not look like the free shipping works for box sets.

Ok ok since you guys have been so nice to me lately (), here's an extra special super code:

D8E1 - 3 free discs

There are 2 really cool things about this code.

1. It's not a one-time only code, so you can use it to your heart's content.

2. It's good for 2 disc sets (i.e. you can order 3 two-disc sets in one order, for free).

Have fun - even you, Ron!!

[GA Russell]

Thanks Aggie!

I've got to get on this one right away. I never thought the day would come when I would dally and pass up on your codes like I've done twice already!

I had a hunch that they would come up with a new code the day after the date for guaranteed Christmas delivery passed.

[Noj]

Wow, thanks Agg! I went nuts with that one.

[Big Al]

DRAT! And right after I took advantage of the buy 1 get 5 free sale! Oh well... Maybe it'll last long enough for the next wave of stuff I'm waiting for!

Great code.

So you can buy all the Blue Note CDs for $2.79 each

[GA Russell]

BMG sent me an email today saying that they are discontinuing the Music Points program. No more points after Jan. 31. No more spending your points after April 30.

Of course, with Aggie's codes, who cares about the points?

That Music Points program lasted about ten years. I figured it wouldn't last long when they started it.

Thank you SO MUCH for this code Aggie! I have been binge-ing. My hunch is that this one will expire at the end of the year...

[Aggie87]

You're welcome!

More than just the code may be expiring before long though. Somebody on the SH Forum just commented that BMG is no longer accepting new members as of today. Their website is suggesting that people go check out Yourmusic instead.

I wonder how much longer BMG/Yourmusic has.

I've had the BMG site bookmarked for years, but today it suddenly started redirecting me to yourmusic. I had to type in the web address of BMG music service just to pay my bill.

It took me to that page as well, but when I logged in at the bottom of the screen, it went to the BMG hompage.

This code can only be used "once" more. Use it now for the last time. (or gamble and wait to see if it expires later) No more multiple uses on this code.

[Noj]

I got all the discs that I ordered with that code yesterday. They must be working at a frantic pace over there!

[mikelz777]

I used the D8E1 code 4 times. I'd try it again but there aren't really any more titles that have enough interest for me even to spend the $2.79 on them.

Aggie, I really appreciate your listing of the new titles of interest as they come in. The updates have lead to several excellent buys. It looks like the BMG days are numbered so I hope to keep apprised of any new titles that come in until the very end.
