It’s ironic that MJ left the world in financial ruins yet MANY people are going to make some serious bank from his death. It was just announced that a new Michael Jackson single called “This Is It” will be released in conjunction with the upcoming movie by the same name. The song will come out on October 12th followed by a 2-Disc collectors CD set. Yes people still do buy CDs. Here is the info on the CD set:

…the double disc album will feature one disc of Jackson’s hits in the sequence they appear in the film while the other disc will feature unreleased versions of his classic tracks, including a spoken word poem from Michael entitled Planet Earth. It also includes a 36-page commemorative booklet with exclusive pictures of his last rehearsal. The first disc will include two versions of the new single “This Is It.”

Props to BrokenCool for the info. Guess they are going to milk this death like its Tupac.
