When you pre-order, you get immediate (legal!) access to the album via RealAudio stream.
Does this mean that they also send you the album??? Laugh at me if you like but I haven't a clue what RealAudio stream is.... I take it that it is something which you download, in which case that would be no good for me I guess with slow internet connection in China.
War....... Its not fantastic |

| Yeah, a stream is like a water stream. The water comes continuously as does the music from the Internet, but if your bandwidth (the width of your stream) is too small, the water/bytes will overflow and you lose water/music, but it keeps coming anyway. Sorry, I realize I probably dumbed it down too much, but I just like water analogies (just try and guess what one of my favourite FB songs is...) |

man they nail you by making you order somethin else with it to get free shipping because if you order it alone it becomes like an 18 or 19 dollar cd. can you preorder something with another item to make it free shippping? if not ill probably just get it at the store. not a bad idea of course

| I believe you can combine a preorder and an order as long as you click 'ship when the whole order is ready'. So you could pre-order SMYT and re-order DITS since your idiot friend lost it somehow and they'd arrive at the same time sans the Shipping. I actually did this with something else and they ended up shipping the thing that was ready first anyway w/o shipping charges. Why? No idea. But I didn't complain. |

Why can't we just pre-order it from SpinArt? Wouldn't they get more money if they bypassed Amazon? Wouldn't we get it cheaper as well?
Why????!!!

i think sarah said somewhere else that perhaps they werent capable of doing that over at spinart in time for the release of this cd. amazon could handle the the load since they have the system setup and all

| Didn't want to hear the album before Sept. 9th, but the Amazon deal tempted me too much. Fortunately/unfortunately the album doesn't play well with my slow bandwidth. But I have been able to listen to thirty second sections of each song up to Massif Centrale. And my God! It sounds so fine. Love the general mood/sound as much as I can make it out so far. I cannot wait for the release. On a side note does anyone know if the "Nadine" LIVE EP will still be coming out August 19th? And where I can get it? |
