What is more important to you? Would you like your favourite artist to release their less good stuff as well as (not instead of) their "better" stuff?
Personally I wouldn't mind hearing some of what rich & boc consider to be not good enough for release... as long as it was cheap!

if they would release something new, i would definitely buy it

i like EPs when i haven't got much time to listen. and i prefer quality, because i haven't got much money to spend on cds. i don't want to see things i'd like to buy but can't afford. :)
i prefer having "rare" tracks as mp3s.

I'm guessing Quality....if it were me, I wouldn't want what I deemed as inferior, available on general release.

this world runs on Quantity. PR & Marketing has the job of creating illusions of Quality, to help shift the Quantity. I want music to have a haven away from this cruel cut-thraoat world.... so it has to be subjectively experienced Quality that wins for me. Only someone in marketing could possibly disagree ( devil spawn that they are )

Quantity, it would be nice to have an added bonus disk full of MP3s of lesser quality as a bonus with the (high quality)main release.

i hate it when people say "well it's better to have quality than quantity"...
why just settle for one? demand BOTH! maybe quality is better than quantity, but quality and quantity is better than quality alone.
thanks for reading my pointless post.

I agree, both is better. I mean they could make it a point to have quality stuff, but at the same time, they could feel the public's desire for more by releasing their not-so-quality stuff. And they could say "Hey guys, we think this stuff is somewhat crappy, but you asked for it, so take it all bitch."
Or they could be a little nicer and people would probably like them more.

Quantity, I'd say. A shitload of B+ Aphex would please me more than a tiny amount of A+ Aphex, to be honest.
And fuck, if you're really good, you can churn out two great albums a year, as long as you're John, Paul, George and Ringo.
Less quantity doesn't always mean better product... could mean the artist is just sucking ass in the studio. 5 years wait for Load coming off the Black Album, and what do we get? Alt rock Metallica...

lots of times musicians record a few albums and scrap them. good examples of this are my bloody valentine, nin, pink floyd, and propellerheads.

Really?!?! I haven't heard that... :-/ What's the format?
Cuz One was great, but not even close to a true ''best of''...
I can imagine ''2'' with a blue cover, and all the amazing stuff that was left off the last one... Walrus, Strawberry, ADITLife, Lucy, HCTSun, etc. Fuck, that would rock the house, it'd be better than ''1''.

Be nice to hear some of those ''scrapped'' albums... I can see how they wouldn't want them released if they aren't up to snuff, but I'd love to hear even (insert artist here)'s leftovers..

Although I would like RDJ to release some new stuff (drukqs is only one year old, but still....), I'd go for quality in the end.

Oh... my... God. 50 tracks? Fucking awesome... and hopefully picked by QUALITY and not sales of the singles. ''From Me to You'' and ''Ballad of John and Yoko'' didn't deserve to be on a ''greatest hits'' ahead of...well, a MILLION other songs. Thanks for the linky, now could you please link me to a site selling boxers, I made a mess in mine.
