Please be aware of the following info:

Most of the companies out there who use some type of monthly response
(CD clubs, book clubs, et al) provide for positive response versus a
negative response.

Explanation:
In most cases, the company in question says, "If you do not respond by
this date, we will send this month's selection to you anyway". You must
respond with "No, I don't want this month's selection.". If you fail
to respond, (i.e. provide a negative response) you are sent the selection.

In a positive response situation, you still get the monthly selection card
BUT it is worded much differently. Now the monthly selection card reads, "If
you want this month's selection, you must repond or we will NOT send it to
you.". If you decide to toss the response card in the trash, you will NOT
get the monthly selection.

It's obvious why most companies prefer to use the negative response. However,
almost all of them will honor your request to switch to a postivie request
format. All you need do is call/write them with this request.

I subscribe to BMG, Columbia, and several monthly book clubs. None of them
has ever refused to switch me to a positive response format. Sometimes, the
company stipulates that you must first fulfil your new member minimum purchase
agreement (if there was one when you signed up); otherwise, I've never had
a problem requesting a positive repsponse.

Try it, you may like it ;-)
