Meanwhile in the UK . http://www.bbc.co.uk...t-arts-17039076 Whitney Houston: Sony 'sorry' for album price hike Record label Sony has apologised for increasing the price of two Whitney Houston albums in the UK, hours after her death on Saturday. The wholesale cost of the two LPs - Houston's Ultimate Collection and Greatest Hits - went up by about £3 each, causing an automatic price increase on iTunes. In a statement, Sony said the albums had been "mistakenly mispriced". It added the error was "immediately corrected" once it had been discovered.Houston fans had taken to Twitter describing the price hike as "greedy" and "shameful". Edit: El Reg chimes in http://www.theregist...ney_price_hike/ Today, Sony Music finally responded to the hue and cry, blaming a clerical error for the price change: Whitney Houston product was mistakenly mis-priced on the UK iTunes store on Sunday. When discovered, the mistake was immediately corrected. We apologise for any offence caused. Quite how the albums accidentally jumped up in cost only on the UK iTunes store and immediately after Houston's death was not explained. ®

Just in passing, to mention to all the Bay Area HC'ers. My coworkers Pink Floyd tribute band, House of Floyd will be playing Yoshi's SF on March 02. Two 90 Minute sets. DSOM, and WYWH. They are curious how it will go down given Yoshi's smoke-free nature, copared to other venues they have played. Something to discuss on Saturday.
