Place likes ebay or Yahoo! JP Auctions may have the promos up for auction sometimes. I have seen a few promotional CDs being sold on ebay (although I was not sure if they were legit or not

)

Promo CD is a CD contains new songs, remixes and it is used for promotion purposes only. And yes it's free, records companies usually send the promo to radio and TV stations, some music newspapers (to write reviews) and distributors.
you can easily look for Promo Cds on ebay.

A-TeensFan said it all

.

I was thinking of buying some back when I bought stuff, because they're quite rare and can contain earlier mixes of the songs, not the finished versions.

slowmoth · #11 25th November 2006, 08:29 PM

Earlier mixes of the songs?
Like the ones in Panasonic's CMs?

immel · #12 25th November 2006, 10:27 PM

For example like that. Panasonic might get a promo CD to use for their CMs.

promo cds are cds that are given away free to radio stations, magazines, newspapers etc in order to promote the cd

It's a skill you have extepan, to walk into every thread and write what's already been written down.
