Mercedes-Benz is certainly notable. However, these mixtapes are not the subject of multiple, non-trivial sources. With a typical album article, you have background info, production, themes, sales, certifications, reviews from music critics etc. But these tapes don't really have any potential to expand.

 * Delete per nom. At most a nod could be made to them on the band's page.  Burzmali 21:37, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment As for notability, the series was nominated for a Gold Lion at the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival (in the viral marketing category), and a claimed 20 million downloads in a year, which isn't bad. And then you've got a few things like this floating around, and I think I read a comment somewhere that it had been mentioned in some German papers. And of course a bunch of notable bands participating. --Lijnema 22:32, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, not everything is notable simply because it's made by a notable company. J I P  | Talk 10:17, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
