CD prices in HK are between $8 - $12 US. Has been that way for years. With regards to the space program. I think it was all hype. China tries to show that it has the ability but one, they didn't land on the moon, two, many countries probably has the technology to send someone into space but it's jus...

Review on music industry 2003

Just going to do some ranting about the music released in 2003. Please go to the entertainment board for a general review of the year it was in showbiz. While most of the year-end music awards are obviously biased, it also showed that overall it was a weak year in terms of music quality, given that ...

The year it was in Chinese showbiz...2003

2003 was definitely one of the most memorable years in Chinese showbiz. 4 Names: Leslie Cheung, CK Lam, Ke Shou Liang (Blackie), Anita Mui....RIP :cry: There was the ICAC "Dance shadow" operation. Unfortunately the only losers were Juno Mak (his dad is probably thanking ICAC or else how ma...

Music: Denise Ho's "Dress me up"

Not exactly a good way to get some recoginition, but most people probably didn't know until the past week that Denise is the only female "student" under Anita Mui, and Denise herself is actually an Anita fan. Seems like Denise has been around for awhile, but this is actually only her 4th a...

It's been a tough year, and this is definitely not the way to end 2003. I had a bad feeling when news reports say that many celebrities were gathering late last nite at the Sanitorium Hospital. I think that Anita's cancer has probably at the final stage when she finally announced it to the public. RIP

Actually Alex Fong's song was actually one of the hottest around a couple of months ago. It just wasn't "popular" among radio stations. It was played all over the streets (literally).

No surprises as you said, but the award winners list show that it was a weak year for HK music.

Eddy, no problem. I think for 2003, Taiwan definitely had much better music than Hong Kong as a whole.

I've been more of a basketball fan than hockey fan for the last few years, partly because I collect basketball cards and gave up on hockey cards (actually more like trying to make some money out of them). Yao is a good player but the Rockets are not going anywhere. The Raptors made a good trade, was...

Music: LEO KU's "Video Game"

Remember him? The guy once touted the "5th Heavenly King"? I must say he wasn't bad, but his songs just got too boring and eventually vanished from the music scene. Well he's back and honestly, having him back in the music scene is better than having another out of tune pretty boy pollutin...

Music: MIRIAM YEUNG's "Miriam's Melodies"

It's not everyday where you see a singer and his/her record label parting on happy terms. But this seems to be the case with Miriam. This is probably her last album with Cinepoly as she has already signed with Gold Label. According to news reports, Miriam, Kelly Chen, and Andy Hui (again) will all h...

I thought Andy has the copyrights to all of his songs, thus unless he agrees to it his record label cannot release any of his previous songs.

Haven't heard anything as to why the album was delayed.

CuJo was never anything great during he regular season, but he seems to take it one step further in the playoffs.

With so many good goalies around, I can see why no one wanted him.

Regarding quality....it's only pop music. Unless the singer has a really good vocal, otherwise good MP3s (192 bit) is good enough, don't even need it to be a CD.
