I don’t follow the logic that some people who made some work are greedy for making the work available again. It’s not a compulsory purchase. It’s two people doing what they do for a living, for money.
Do you want a new album full of music elements, well produced, etc.

They need money to pay it.

They're both multimillionaires. They don't need the money and I'm sure could easily afford and self finance all albums they record in future with top producers and equipment.

I agree though that it's still their living. They make a product available and the consumer/fan ect, will then decide to purchase that product or not.

:wall: I’ll do one more attempt at ordering from the OS. If it’s not working this time I will skip buying and start listening to death metal instead.

Same here.
I don't know what to do.

Any idea?
I contacted them using the "contact form", but no answer.
Changed PC, browser, method of payment... no way.

Oh for the days when you could walk into HMV (or the record shop of your choice) pick a record of the shelf, take it to the counter an just pay for it... Remember those days...

It seems to me that non U.K. orders are having the issues.
I’ve checked out twice (on my iPhone and PC) successfully with PayPal.

Maybe try as a guest with PayPal… that would be the better way for those with problems checking out I think.

Anyone else wish they had more than just the 2 T-shirt designs being offered? Why not any of the other images?

Any more info on the illustrated booklet with the 3CD/2BR and vinyl version?

Do they mean illustrations as in drawings/sketches?
you could say conventional ... and I could claim intentional

The 3CD/2Blu-Ray and vinyl formats also include an illustrated booklet written by Chris Heath in which all songs are discussed.

I'd imagine mostly pictures of the sleeves like we see in the previews.

I recognise the stuff they're saying, has it been lifted from the FL-booklets?
