in 1999 you had the ability to get into a music shop, load the cd and test listen to it. Or just go through the music charts. Or wish for a specific song on radio.

Also 1999 already had Napster, Morpheus and others.

You buy the CD because they had a charting single on radio, you’re than disappointed that the rest of the album is a different sound.

Not everyone had internet in the 90s-00s either mate…..

Sugar Ray surprised many people by being a punk band that had a pop song or two.
