my USB copy stinks too. it's bc of that black foamy stuff they used to cushion the USB in.

you made me do something silly... i went to smell my albums~

HAHAHA there are a lot of funny posts today. I must say, I have never had any problems with my overseas CDs smelling. this is just HILARIOUS. what exactly does the smell remind you of?

sometimes it smells weird because it's a new stuff... like buying a new car~

i would says it is the factory unique smell.

OK, so now that I've gotten my copy of NL USB, it does smell. I think it is the foam. It smells like car tires. Y'know that smell when you walk through the tire section of a car repair shop? Its kinda like that, but not entirely. *cough* *hack* I was trying to smell it more so I could describe it better. I can feel the brain cells dying.

This is unrelated to NEXT LEVEL smelling but... a few years back when I bought Utada Hikaru's "Dareka no Negai ga Kanau Koro" single it reaked and it had this odd film all over the back of the CD. :S

oooh... odd film all over the back of the CD?

Mine 2CD+DVD doesn't stink, but I've heard my friend said that USB really stinks!
BTW yesterday I've got Jade Valerie - Out Of The Box ~Korean Version~ and it's really stinks! Ewww... *_*

lol you guys are giving me mental images of everyone smelling their CD now...XD
posters usually have a nice smell to me though

It is the NEXT LEVEL smell.
CHERISH IT!

lolz. I'm glad u mean the packaging. hahaz.

I think new ones usually wld have a smell. But the songs smell great. LOL.

My NEXT LEVEL 2cd+dvd smells like thinner when opened?

haha... as i said... put on fragrances... oh yeah... maybe because of the shipping box?

my copy doesn't smell bad
just ordinary plastic :P

WTF

Nope, mine doesn't stink, but this thread does! :lmfao

hey pinky, what's with the hidden F word

My copy of NEXT LEVEL doesn't stink... however, that Off my Day photobook of my (miss)understood copy smells weird. ew.
