We're making up some T-Shirts for the comdex show, and we're looking for some suggestions on slogans to put on them :)

If we use your suggestion, you get a free T-shirt (we're hopefully making a few styles). So... any ideas?

Our ones so far have been along the lines of...

"Is that a 600-disc autochanger in your trunk... or are you just pleased to see me?"

"empeg. It's big and small and noisy"

Hugo

Here you go:-

front
"empeg - what the worlds been waiting for"
back
www.empeg.com

or

"Can you do 70 hours without repeating yourself?"

My suggestions:

"This ain't your fathers CD-Player" (it's an american saying)
"Own the future of Car Audio now"
"Empeg Car - Finally a reason for driving" or "Empeg Car - The Reason For Driving"
"Empeg Car - Home of the 4000 song no repeat year" (parody of the US radio's phrase "Home of the 12 song no repeat work hour")
"Only 2000 years to prefect Car Audio"
"Empeg Car - This thing is better than sex"
"When you're tired of hearing the same song twice - in a year"
"And Sony though 12 disks would be enough for your car"
"Sony: Mini-Disk it's dead now" (that might piss'em off a bit much though)
"CD - Been There Done That"
"The Biggest Little Head"

Those are mine...

"CD - Been There Done That"

Shouldn't that be "CD - Been There, Ripped That"? :-)

But then we'd have to have pictures of waddling penguins talking to each other, falling down slopes and jumping off of ice-sheets.

How about:

"Music CDs? Yeah, I remember those, did they come before or after 8-track?"
"empeg: how much music?!!!"
"empeg: more music than you can handle!"
"Linux, the original soundtrack..."
"empeg: If music be the food of love, this thing's a sex-machine!"

I'm sure there's some *really* good 8-track and CD analogies to be put together, but I can't think of any polite ones!

Jim.
