Ordered owb from hmv in Japan so I could get the dvd and extra tune. Obviously it hasn't arrived yet and I have just read about a two day postal strike so thats gonna delay it further.
After reading all the opinions on here and I just cant wait to hear it any longer. i feel like Im gonna burst.
Should I download it so I can hear it or should I wait ?
Is anybody else going through the same ?

Once I heard that it could be downloaded I felt like a kid who had just found his Christmas presents in November. i waited for my milenium falcon (it was wrapped up when i found it) maybe I can do it again 25 years later.
Or can I ?

I am quietly waiting for the "physical release" as Karl calls it to arrive from hmv japan. Although I've dowloaded the riverruns and the free live gigs (the only way you can actually hear them), I still like the concept of a real disc in my mits. I'm old enuff to still treasure gatefold sleeves, favoured by the prog rock ppl like Rush, Yes, and Genesis.

The strike means you won't get any mail until next Wednesday.
Having said that, all of my CD's from HMV Japan have been sent by EMS mail which are delivered by Parcelforce. Parcelforce are nothing to do with Royal Mail so you should still get your OWB fix this week! :)

I can't blame them for industrial action. 2.5% is an insult especially as the rate of inflation has been alot higher.

My Japanese OwB arrived at the local post office on October 5th, but I still haven't received it. I've been to the post office twice, but they can't find it. So bloody annoying.
I was thinking of ordering a new one, but ... since I ordered tickets from Kartenhaus, I choose to block my credit card. Will have to wait for another week before I receive a new one. :mad:
