Gothicayu is right when she says that the only promo CDs that are really rare are the ones distributed via acetate (CD-R) copies. Those ones are meant to be distributed within the industry only and are burned to CD-Rs because the amount that are distributed is low and doesn't merit a pressing.
ok so cd, and cdr, what's the difference? compact disk, compact disk-rom?
