Re: Bungalow with Stairs album
30 freaking pounds? Plus 10 pounds shipping to the USA? And no option to just buy the CD?
I've been waiting months for this. Was I just totally naive to expect that it would be possible to get the music to me for around $20? Sorry if I'm being unreasonable. I'm just bummed at the moment. |

Re: Bungalow with Stairs album
I'm the same as you guys, I got up to the point of paying for the thing in paypal and realized I really can't justify $65-odd dollars for a single CD anymore in my life. Those times are well behind me now.
All I'd love is a digital version since the first thing I'd be doing with the cd is ripping it to mp3 and then putting it a box, never to see the light of day until I next move house. It makes no sense to me that they underutilize their shop for digital purchases. |

Re: Bungalow with Stairs album
I must say that I am really pleased with the set as I wanted the exhibition catalogue too, but it would be nice of they could post the CD as a download at a more reasonable price in the shop too. Maybe it will happen next year, or even before Christmas. I am sure those who bought the package would be happy to have that, and not begrudge the music being more widely available to burn for yourself.............................By the way, returns don't work on my posts, is there some way to get a line return.

Re: Bungalow with Stairs album
I'm in a similar state of trepidation regarding this purchase as I really want that CD and the catalog would be nice too. But I too got to the purchase page before not going through with it. It also doesn't help that I'm on an unsecure wifi at an airport.
Maybe I'll change my mind by the time I get home later this evening. |

Re: Bungalow with Stairs album
Don't get me wrong, I think its fantastic that they're offering the catalog up to people who are interested. Its just frustrating that its an all or nothing offering.
And while I certainly wouldn't turn down the opportunity to buy just files of the album, I was willing (and actually wanting) to pay a premium for a physical CD. But when it cost me less than $60 to get the whole "Barking" box (including shipping), it seems nonsensical to have to choose to pay $65 or not have the opportunity to even hear "Bungalow". Oh well... |

Underworld has a vast catalog of music. People would buy this music digitally if it was available. Why isn't it? I am legitimately curious why R&K or any working band today would choose not to exploit the most widely-used delivery systems to their full extent. |
