Hot on the Tracks
If you were an also-ran computer maker, and fell asleep (or went bankrupt) in 1994 and woke up in 2005, you'd probably think Apple had gotten back into the black by starting iTunes, the way people talk. That's the only explanation for the Commodore Music Store that makes any sense: some Rip van Winkle shit. And what's the only thing worse than being a pathetic also-ran? Being sued by Lionel Richie, or one of the other Commodores, because they need the money as badly as you do.
Check out the $363 Commodore mp3 player, too. Has anyone ever seen one in the wild?

Yeah, the original Commodore went bust a number of years ago. Another company bought the rights to the name in the hopes of creating a new line of Commodore computers, but eventually sold the name to some company called Yeahronimo (no joke). Yeahronimo is responsible for what you see here. (Take a look at where yeahronimo.com takes you.)
How far are we from the end of company names when all that's left is something like Yeahronimo?

uglyredhonda, I'm thinking of that scene in Futurama where the only two names that haven't been copyrighted are Tasticles and Popplers.

I want to know why they don't sell any music by The Commodores. It just doesn't add up to me.
