When are there too many remixes? Does too many rmxes take away value from your product? Is it shortsighted to think that 'the more rmxes, the better'?

[Where connections = remixes]
I rlly like Cut Copy, and all of these authorized remixes by artists who are relevant/worthy of remixing them, but as a consumer, it is natural for me to want a new product.
"Hearts on Fire" already has rmxes by:
- Knightlife
- Joakim
- Holy Ghost
- Midnight Juggernauts
- Damage
- (some1 else?)
Should there be a limit on the number of remixes that can be done on one song? I'd say 3.5 is a safe number, but usually you should have 1 great dance remix, and an additional banger or 'concept' remix based on ur band's brand. If u worked for a major independent electro indie record label, what would u suggest during a brainstorming session?

hipster runofff is the bestbut 3.5 should be the limit to remix's
4, and one of those should always be a justice remix haha
8
Cut Copy just gave away a free Hearts on Fire Accapella so people are going NUTS.I know im making 14 remixes. one of them is going to be a ranchera mexicana remix.
There are also remixes by NT89 and Calvin Harris. 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42
the m0r remixes= the better. common this is the blog age, u can preview everything on hype machine b4 u download. take what u like, leave what u don't. why should we bitch about the amount of available free music? I paid $6 for singles in junior high school, I'm perfectly happy listening to 20 seconds of a crappy remix and deciding not 2 download.
But if you limited it to 3 remixes per song then Crookers would hog all three!For every new release you need:A remix by an established producer.(Switch, Diplo, Phones ect.)A remix by an "up & coming" producer.(GRUM, Night Facilites, Boy 8-Bit)A remix by an alternative "band" that are trying to jump on the "remixing wagon"(CSS, The Horrors, Cut Copy)A remix by a leftfield act that makes the song sound "sO Randem"(Crystal Castles, Burial, Metronomy)A remix by a French house veteran that makes the song sound all "melodic & euphoric"(Alan Braxe & Fred Falke)& your obligatory 3 mixes by Crookers^^^^^^^Tried & Tested formular for creating "Alt-Hype" for aNY Group/Artist.As patented by Modular.
