Media Movers is ahead of the times with their high quality and environmentally friendly cd packaging (as used for 'The Knife that Cuts a Tear' album). Not only do they supply an amazing product but their service is refreshingly friendly and helpful. Audiences are loving the uniqueness of the Eco packaging (although it may not be unique for long...... I sincerely hope this 'alternative' type of cd packaging is quickly adopted by many other musicians).
