Die, heathen scum!  Maybe someone out there will buy this compilation just
to hear Kate and get turned on to someone else.  I admit it's unlikely given
the roster of talent on Two Rooms (all popular artists who are quite well
known) but the principle holds true for other sorts of compilations.  I
bought a Funky Alternatives comp to get a supposedly exclusive Skinny Puppy
remix and heard about ten other bands worth investigating.  So, your theory
is wrong.
