Are we assuming that the fact that the cd holds only 5 songs will not hurt our sales? Should we take that into consideration when thinking of promotion. Cd’s tend to have much more on them.
When we are choosing songs for the albums, would it be appropriate to for example pick the top 5 songs from the class that use acoustic guitar and group them together? Would a theme like this work? If not what other ways have students picked songs in the past?

Do you care which music tracks we choose - Specifically if we found for example five country tracks and geared it towards that audience, or would you prefer if we chose tracks from different genres?
In the "postmortem" section of the page for project 2, it lists "provide documentation that would be necessary in a professional setting" as a quality for an excellent postmortem. To what extent should we document our work?

On the subject of using copyrighted materials, if we were to create a website/radio/video promotional material, could we use music from the CD itself as media within the material?
Should everything for the CD(cover, label, jewel case design) be printed and done in a high quality for sale, or as close as we can get it to professional without using much money?
What exactly is going to be the separation between design plans, as it seems a single design plan could do the job for both the CD and promotional material as they are so interconnected and alike?
Just to clarify, we are only using 5 songs correct?
Also, is a Lightscribed CD acceptable or should the design be printed on a paper label?
