Fry's Greatest Holophonor Hits is a collection of Fry's music as performed on the Holophonor. It was composed while he still had the Robot Devil's hands and his musical career was on the rise. It is advertised as containing 900 songs on a two-record set, totaling over 30 minutes of material and costing $14.99. Dr. Zoidberg was so excited by the offer, and his self-perception as a "crafty consumer", that he bought eight albums (4ACV18).
Additional Info
Trivia
- The television advertisement for the album is very similar to the ones for musical collections sold by Time–Life, which were prominent in the United States during the late 20th century.
- Thirty minutes of music, or one half-hour, equals exactly 1800 seconds and, at 900 songs, this means that the average song length is only two seconds.
