    I'd like Donuts on vinyl and I'd prefer that cover, so I might pick it up, dressed in a trenchcoat and a paper bag on my head to hide my shame.

    One thing I wonder though - since they seem hellbent on milking every last dollar from Dillas catalogue (yes, for a good cause and all that), why not release an album of the best beats from some of his beattapes? Rather than something like "Jay stay paid", I'd prefer an whole album of stuff like this:

    Yes, those dudes passed away with a little more in their bank accounts (i would assume anayway)
