Yes you are right, I have this one too. Maybe we should make a list who have this record;)

Wow, it definitely not worth that much, especially since they're all available digital losslessly now (which they weren't at the time that promo went out).

diamond jigsaw 6 track promo
 
guess i didn't see this earlier:
------
http://i.ebayimg.com/t/UNDER-WORLD-D...7ev!~~0_12.JPG

it has the main mixes..

i've been wondering if these (promos) qualify as collectors items though?

especially since most mixes are released digitally first.
i know a few people still like and prefer physical single releases,
along with actual artwork.
but the band has been de-emphasizing those for quite some time now.

i guess in a way they still are, but they aren't really offering
new material in this way. the digital releases sometimes have
more mixes to offer.

There's a copy of Bungalow With Stairs (£6) and the Pink Rez (£25) available in Soul & Dance Exchange in Notting Hill at the moment if anyone's missing those items from their collection.

for me as a former collector, i'd still want this more than a digital release, to have and to hold is better than anthing else, at least its official and is probably a rarer item than ever before because these are becoming scarcer, and owning something material is better than digital which is infinite. I mean, if my entire uw mp3 collection got wiped - it'd be a pain but i reckon i'd be able to grab most of it again - without cost somehow, if you know what i mean. So yeah its digital if you want all the material, but if your a collector of product its still worthwhile, no one says come round and see my 25,000 mp3's do they...??

some singles on amazon are print-on-demand cd-r's (examples from 'bt')
that come with artwork also.

i would think that would be an easy alternative for bands to provide
both options for fans. again the question would be if it is worth getting
those when they would never really go out of print or would always
be accessible. much like digital WAV files for the mixes of the latest
underworld singles.
