Editorial Review:
It’s hard to believe that 10 years have passed since Amazon Music opened its proverbial doors. In 1998, music fans pounded the streets with their Discmen, half the acts on this disc hadn’t released their first albums yet, and record stores ruled the retail music game. But in the past decade, music has undergone huge changes.
To thank the millions of customers, artists, businesspeople, and fans who have helped make this possible, we present our 10th Anniversary compilation. The musicians herein represent some of the bestsellers among the Amazon community since 1998. Without knowing it, then, you nominated them for this musical testament to the past 10 years. They accepted, and they join us in celebrating the GRAMMY Foundation’s MusiCares program, which works tirelessly for the health and welfare of musicians nationwide.
So on behalf of all of us at Amazon Music, thank you for helping us achieve the dream of the best music store on the planet. And brace yourselves: we're almost a teenager.
Amazon.com 10 Years of Music Reviews:
...decade-dense... 
2009-05-08 - Yo Amazon...really love your service...congrats on 10 years of bringing the greatest variety to music lovers everywhere...
....everywhere except on your anniversary compilation disc, that is...
Where's the classical?...where's the jazz?...where's the amazon we know and love?...
To reiterate another reviewer, except for The Dixie Chicks, I couldn't care less about any of these artists, and don't even recognize most of the songs, so your 'box set with free cd' giveaway is not really very enticing, but more importantly, just a shame to be held up as an 'example' for all the hard work you've done...
peace...
GOOD TUNES BUT ... 
2009-04-28 - THIS CD HAS SOME REALLY GOOD TUNES ON IT, BUT I DO NOT CARE FOR THE HIP-HOP ONES. NOT MY STYLE.
The Best?????? 
2009-02-27 - There isn't a single "artist" on here I care about, maybe a little, the Dixie Chicks, just a little bit, too me, this is a complete waste!!
After Ten Years 
2008-12-08 - of buying hundreds of dollars worth of Music , Books and Etc , making Amazon what it is , I would expect this to be a Xmass Present to All of Us Regular Customers ... It would have been a Nice Touch , too bad we only think of Profits ... When was the last time a Company gave you a Freebee for making it what it is ? ... I can't Remember ... But , hard times are a comming , we will see If we Can Survive The Crunch ... Good Luck ...
The "Pop" in Pop Culture 
2008-12-06 - The release is a neat cross-section of a decade of pop culture, with an obvious focus on those who were - or continue to be - the chart toppers.
The one artist with the most remarkable staying power is Bruce Springsteen, who continues to churn out timeless music. Dave Matthews Band, Norah Jones, Coldplay and Backstreet Boys cover a lot of musical turf in the ever-changing entertainment universe.
This is a good collection at a great price that benefits an outstanding cause.
