some of you really don't get it image Sony is making money without doing anything in most of the countries. Without doing anything, they are milking her ass. Her last GH compiation sold over 4 million copies worldwide. Most artist don't EVER sell 4 mill copies.

it's not about "let's get this record way high on the charts so the fans are happy!" it's about making easy $$$$$$$$$$$$

True, its easy money. Whats the big deal anyway? It may bring in the odd new fan. Never a bad thing.

Well Sony Needs to get there act together and stop releaseing the same old crap over and over again just to make money off Mariah. It's making her Compilations not worth even checking out no less buying. IF (IDJ) and Sony want sales and Hits they need to work together this December and get Mariah performing "I Stay In Love" and "All I Want For Christmas Is You" on some shows in the Major markets like Japan and the U.K.

This isnt an issue for Sony though - they made a massive success of the GH and arent doing too shabby with The Ballads.
