And there is ANOTHER sore spot! How about all these albums by different Groups/singers labeled, "Best Of (fill in a group name)", yet if you take a look at the songs on any such album, you will often note many of the songs are NOT their best. They are just fillers that never even made the Billboard top 100. That's just misleading advertising. THAT grabs my crotch hairs!

Ouch. maybe you should get some cream for that?! As far as the previously unheard songs on teh best of albums, I have to agree. Although occassionally the unheard of before song is good, I don't know if it should be on a "best of" album. When I do buy albums, I tend to buy the best of ones instead of trying to collect all of the previous albums of a group or artist. There are some exceptions. I have most, if not all, of Pink Floyd, The Eagles and Led Zeppelin albums, and I still buy the best of. To me, it's just easier to have one album with all of the songs I like than to look through 4 or 5 albums to find those songs.
