Bo Bice's Album Offered With MOAM
Bo Bice's The Real Thing (this has been offered at a $2 discount with MOAM. That might account for a bit of the rise in MOAM sales yesterday when The Real Thing was higher on the Amazon charts). Yesterday's MOAM ranking was in the 800's, compared to the normal ranking in the 2000-4000 range.

Measure Of A Man -- New Order From RCA
An interesting factoid this morning. Amazon notes that there are only two copies left in stock, but more are on the way. The good news - Amazon has ordered more from RCA (will help with numbers shipped which counts to RIAA platinum certifications). The bad news - this is right before Christmas so sales may be lost. I think it's unfortunate that any company allows stock to drop so low before re-ordering. But I also suspect Amazon also uses this as a sales tool - i.e. "Order now before they're all gone".
