As an acetate of Britney Spears' 'Everytime' single struggles to sell for 50 pence on ebay (item no. 4779433142), at the other extreme, music manager Andrian Adams is auctioning his share of the copyright on the same song with ebay starting price of £15,000. Andrian hopes it will reach about £100K and was quoted as saying,
"I'm selling my share in the song because I want to do other stuff with the money. I thought it would be wonderful to offer this opportunity to the millions of Britney fans all over the world - people who would never normally be in a position to make this type of acquisition."
Am I missing something here? Just how many Britney fans are "in a position to make this type of acquisition"?!!!! On second thoughts, fans supposedly bid & bought Britney's farts plus used 'Spear-mint' (!) chewing gum.
UPDATE:
Around 9:30PM tonight (2 November) with about 1 hour left to go, I got a call from Andrian after he'd been googling; it hadn't clicked/I hadn't remembered we knew each other, having met & lunched together several months ago with a mutual composer friend. Andrian wondered if this item would reach £30K, well look, by the end it trebled it!!!! This could be the start of a very interesting trend.....
