Why are CD's released on Tuesdays?

Why are CD's released on Tuesdays? Well, as it turns out, no one really knows. There are, of course, some explanations that people say have to do with shipping product on the weekend, not having time to correct messed up orders, or having a week to rack up numbers with Billboard. But it still comes back to, not really sure!??!

I was wondering this myself just the other day when I was thinking about a release date for my new CD. Maybe I would be different this time and release the CD on another day, just to see if it got noticed more. Not as much competition to deal with, maybe people would have a few nickles left over from launch or maybe, just maybe, there was nothing left to do and people would just go to the computer and order up a copy of my new CD to hear what all the hub bub was all about. NOT!!

So, I guess I'll be releasing my new CD on a Tuesday sometime soon. Why, no one really knows...
