(f) none of the above
"Product Condition: Brand New Audio CD- Never Used!"; but if it really works, couldn't they sell you a used one and just tell you it's new and then you'd never know/change your mind?

Are we sure this isn't a political device?

It might make more sense if they told you
what the CD was supposed to teach you. For example, can I learn to play bouzouki by listening to this thing?

I just can't believe people are selling ways to make musicians better that don't include practicing. So, listening to this CD not only makes you play better, but also improves your theory knowledge as well? Is there a way to let other people know this is a crock? Some poor high school or junior high student is going to buy this and wonder why he still got an "excellent" or "good" rating at solo and ensemble festival.
This is the stuff that just doesn't belong in the music world; there is no place for it.

Entrainment:
Transitive verb
Inflected forms: en·trained, en·train·ing, en·trains 1. To pull or draw along after itself. 2. Chemistry To carry (suspended particles, for example) along in a current.
What that has to do with the CD, I'm not so sure.

And the strange thing about all this is that the border ads still haven't gone wonky off topic.
Well ... after I posted this, my border ads DID go off topic.

Based upon my wives' attributes at the time of our meeting, I think she got the prototype on cassette.

You're not supposed to notice that. It's supposed to be subliminal.

I think you all missed the obvious here. This guy has been selling this method for decades. He used to call it the "think" system. I think his previous eBay seller ID was HHILL364 or somethin' like that. Only shipped via Wells Fargo. Problem was- he didn't know the territory.
sorry- I promise not to post again this year.
