When it was found out, people complained and the record company allowed people to return the CDs for a refund. "A refund? You bought the CD because you liked the music, right?"
Well, in my decision to buy a book or a cd I use more factors than just if I like the book or the cd. Such factors as who the author is and so on. I read a book in a contexts. I would be pretty annoyed if a read a non-fiction book and later was told that it was fiction. I read non-fiction and fiction in different ways.
