wonder why i got the digipak instead of jewel, but i dont mind, just a bit confused

Probably because it was out sooner?

I just received my Digipak from HDR.

My beef with digipaks is that sometimes they don't come with a booklet and instead print the lyrics and artwork directly on the digipak itself. I HATE that. I burn copies of all my favorite CD's to carry with me in my 200+ CD-binder and it annoys me to no end to not have a booklet to go with the CD. I alternate the position of the booklets and CDs so when the binder is closed there is never a CD-to-CD contact which can cause nasty scratches on the data sides of the discs. So, if I don't get a booklet to go with the CD, there's a stupid blank spot in my binder that I can't fill up because I don't want my CD's getting scratched, even if they are burned copies.

And for anyone who is wondering, no, I do not burn copies of my original CD's for anyone I know. I burn them for myself so as to keep the originals in as good a condition as possible. This is especially important for out of print CD's, such as Porcupine Tree's Stupid Dream.

I sent in my preorder to Tracy for the HDR version today, so it looks like about two weeks or so until Synchestra takes over my life.

Because Tracy said that they won't receive the jewel case version until about the 10th of February.

I like the digipacks myself, I know they don't last as long, but sill they're pretty.

When did you order?

*tries to figure out an ETA*

20th.

A week after I ordered the "garden variety" CD...and the SE arrived a week later. Both 11 days to Oz.

Same. Orded the day before you last time and got it the day after.

Righty.....Tomorrow or thursday then.

Aaaah! I ordered my 'garden' on the 13th but it still isn't here. Have you built some kind of massive underground tunnel to Canada?

heh heh

If I could arrange that, I wouldn't be sitting here...

I built one, but theres only room for one person, and it's also where I live... so sorry

Alright, I thought I was understanding this whole situation, but now I'm confused again. My previous understanding was that those who pre-ordered the album recieved a Euro digipack version which will have already arrived. Those who ordered directly from the HDR site are reciving a jewel case version, which has been delayed until the 10th.

But now Coma Divine has recieved a digipack from HDR?

Can someone explain?

He did preorder. The release date is the 27th/30th/later depending on country.
