This is a fair point. BUT, posting a question implies that it hasn't already been asked or explained in previous posts! If you get confused or mix up the details, that's too bad. The excuse is usually "i don't have time to weed through 16 pages of posts to get my answer!" Well, guess why this and other threads gets long? Pages and pages of reply/rebuttal/you said/i meant/eat-my-shorts kinds of responses! But it takes mere seconds to see which posts are useful and which can be skipped. That minimal effort will get everyone the info they seek.

Regarding the CDs...UW has been ultra generous and the folks around here have made every possible effort to keep everyone happy and satisfied. How many times does this need said? the plans were all posted and people were anxiously awaiting the next ebay sale. Let's not get all pissy and start calling people "moaners" (;) ) or "elitists". Remember, "you can't always get what you want, but if you TRY sometimes, you get what you need". No one Needs a limited edition UW concert. They're nice, sure, but can we keep perspective, dirts? :)

Anyone look at "malfunctions5"'s feedbacks? Seems the ebayer bought a lot of ebooks before the selling of the CD's. Was this done just to get a feedback score above 0?.

Can't wait to get in on the second batch.

ahahahaaaahhahaha

damn funny.


i'm joining in the ranks of people who think

1) if you havent got a cd by now, its nobody's fault but your own. you've had enough warning, time, useful links, and hard work done on your behalf

2) its only a live cd. calm down. it will not contain the cure for cancer.

ps. i dont have a cd yet, its my fault. i'm just going to wait til some time later this week

haha yeah imagine ;)

But i do have one and i acquired my CD one way...

As a massive fan, i sought out several routes for getting one of these CDs as soon as i knew it was available - way before there was even talk of Underworld based auctions, and had they not gone on ebay (from UW staffers), i would have bought one of the expensive over priced ones probably, as it was i was lucky to get one...but you do what you gotta do:

I read these forums every day, i check ebay every day, i chat on the message boards fairly frequently, i have enough friends here that would probably tell me about something like this also...i would have come across it and made damn sure i was there at 12:00 when the acution started, in fact i was and watched as they all disappeared, like the first time the guys at the lemon put these for sale...

i did initially moan myself about the fact that these CD's were being sold in Japan only to concert goers, but regardless of that fact - i would have still tried to get hold of one...even if it took some time

Underworld is what i collect and heaven forbid missing something like this, but lukeyd is right its not a cure for cancer, and its not a great big deal, its not like they haven't broadcast the music from this show also - for some that was more than enough...

If any of you miss (or missed) out, then unfortunatley thats not UW's, Yannick's, Scott's, or anyone else's fault...so don't blame anyone.

If you wanna stay on top of things do what you have to...

anyhow...just keep the faith people...and the moany bastard thing wasn't directed at anyone specifically ;)

like Janie said this has been going on for way too long, and being lazy (and not reading the relevant threads) is not an excuse to moan.

But i do hope all of you that still need one of these manage to get one when they go on sale again, but i have a feeling that after these - that will be it - so keep yer eyes peeled....

OK

seriously now, anyone who needs an sms about this, I am:
a) in the UK
b) not working tomorrow (although I am working Wednesday - disclaimer)

I am perfectly happy to text ANYONE NO MATTER WHERE IN THE WORLD as soon as I see this listed. (2nd disclaimer - I am a bit drunk and may have a hangover in the morning)

If you want me to SMS you when this is listed, PM me with your number and I will try my best.

just want to make this very clear. my moaning (in the beginning and still very much now) was NOT about not being able to get this set. Yan, Scot, and Stimp et al, are saints on this forum with helping us out. ive never once blamed a single person. my moaning was about the feeling i was getting about everything on here getting complicated, elitest (i'll say it too, yeah) and a bit more annoying. **it may be just me, but its the feeling i got when these mp3s were released. there was a lot of 'i have it you cant have it' and it got to me.** again, i dont really care if i get the cds or not, it would be nice, but i dont really care. the fact that no one agrees with me on this feeling leads me to believe that i got a bad read on the situation, so i'll just pipe up now. :)

soo, its really nice out today in NJ.

haha good :)

btw. i wasn't having a go specifically at you, i quoted you originally because it was your bit about me not getting the CD's that made me reply...

the bit about 'if you missed out...' was a "you" meaning everyone in general, who seemed to be blaming someone else for not getting what they wanted, rather than doing the work for themselves...

anyway glad you are having a nice NJ day, and i do agree with you moaning about complicating things, it would have been easier for a lot of people, if whoever organised these CD's to just get everyone who wanted one to buy one from a dedicated website, after all the people who wanted one were dirty members, and uwlive visitors, now if they just said there's 100 cd's for sale, please send us your details via an order form and pay, by whatever method, it could have been done that way...

still i think this was more of a reaction to forum talk, and they didn't really have time to do this

i think Yan got a nod to say that there might have been some CD's left, asked who wanted, then they decided the quickest way to knock these out was via ebay, and the most resourceful way to get the message across was via these forums...it may have been a bit convaluted but it worked for most people...i guess...

anyway, enough on this matter now...when's the next batch released?

Nah it wasnt!

It was just decided that, as it was a commercial product, it was not to be ripped and disseminated through the standard other sharing place resource. There was no dictatorial fiat as to what individuals might choose to do were they lucky enough to get their hands on some rips, though.

But I am not gonna start arguing again.

Honest.

Really.

I'm not.

No.

Not ever.
