The Chivalric Family

                Certainly most of us thought that our music search for home personal spaces was over when Exclusive publishing decided to create the Playground Boombox, however what we see quite some time later is that more of these sleeper music items are being made, but are far underappreciated, and unpopular. These kinds of music seem to be legally distinct, afraid to use or use too much of what might be widely considered, good.

                Take the Novus Prime soundtrack boom box, its catchy, its futuristic, it’s relatively new. So why have so people seen or heard about it? Odds are, unless you have a friend that’s really into Novus Prime and decided to buy the associated personal space, you or no one that you know owns that boom box. Its using these futuristic sounding genres of beats to capture the attention, but not to keep it. 

                But what about one of Exclusive's same active items, a little heat shaped music box? It contains "Feel Like Makin' Love", and "I Only Have Eyes for You", certainly this mix of classic and newer love songs is sure to be popular, but unless you want to listen to the same two songs over and over again, you probably didn't buy this either. 

                When or how can we expect Home to publish newer, "better" music? As consumers, we can't do much. Boycotting the audio based items would make a largely insignificant tweak in Home's profit margin that no one doing so would be considered sane. Hopefully Home's designers will realize that there is far more money in the 10-12 people huddled around the Plaza dance floor than the one good looking female avatar lurking around the soundless environment of the Gamer's Lounge.
