I don't see why not. I mean, you really only need one physical format but really, how hard can it be to put this online for download. They have an online shop in place, it's just a matter of ripping the CD. I mean I really cannot see how it could take more than a few hours.

if it really was that easy, don't you think they would have
done it already?

did you miss the part about licensing, distribution,
the artists intent, etc. etc..

i used to help out with the website for the band KMFDM,
and it took them awhile to get online tracks, the online store,
and a lot of other things done.. i remember it was difficult from
a legal/license viewpoint to do a lot of things.. (especially the
artwork part , because they had to deal with the artist BRUTE separately)..

just because it's easy to do, doesn't mean
it's easy TO GET DONE...

there's a lot more factors involved..

Once you have decent infrastructure set up to put one item up for sale digitally, it's trivial to add more. And licensing etc shouldn't be a problem either, since it's their work and their sales outlet. I don't know why they haven't done it already, but yeah, it really is that easy.

I understand that, but what exactly would be holding up UW? Don't they own their own stuff? Once their website is set up why would it take more than a day (or, more realistically, an hour or two) to add new material?

Now, now. We wouldn't want this to go live without the copyright lawyers having a profound, reassuring (read: costly) look at it, would we?

Has anyone else (especially in the US) NOT received yours yet??!?

Hasn't shown up in Chicago, but Barking took over a month to arrive, so I'm not panicking yet.

[ultradave]

Los Angeles, CA here and no CD or Book yet...

That makes me feel a bit better then (I guess).
