now that sucks of course...you could get some money changed into $$$ at your bank and then send Tracy the money...and hope that it actually gets there

I would not download anything other than the complete and finished product, but since my primary music player is on my computer, I'll probably just download it. Obviously I'll buy the CD anyway, but the sound is the same anyway.

Hi I’m new here. This forum rocks man!
Going to see SYL supporting Arch Enemy on 15th Dec at the Astoria.


I'll buy a Japanese version with a bonus track. Can't wait to hear Vai playing on one of the songs too...

blablablabla

I'll download it. Forgive me Dev. but when it comes out i'll buy it also..

I download all, I like download it and give free culture to all.

But the great bands I buy.
I will buy syl and dtb originals, but here is very difficult.

I pay anything, anywhere..
I hope this holydays... in the web

T_T

I'll download it. Forgive me Dev. but when it comes out i'll buy it also..

That´s it. I cannot resist when I find it, but OF COURSE I will buy it on the first day when it's out!
And I am looking forward to the bonus live DVD! Great idea!!!

I'll download it, and I will buy it.

I think a lot of you who abhor the downloading of music really should take a step back and realize how helpful the internet and downloading has really been for bands like Strapping Young Lad or Devin Townsend.

MANY people would have never heard of them, or had the chance to HEAR them if not for the internet. There are NO local stores here that have any of Townsend's stuff to listen to. A select few have some SYL cds which you can buy, they're not on the sample rack.

I do not support the idea of downloading and NOT paying for any of it if you enjoy it. However, if you download an entire album and find a new band you completely love and wind up buying their entire catalog and telling all your friends about it, there's no way you can argue that the internet and downloading music is a BAD thing.

Whatever though, it seems there will always be a handful of people who feel they're better than someone else because they didn't download the album before it came out. At the end of the day, if both people pay for their copy of the cd nobody is missing out.

Exactly and totally correct.

It does rely on people actually following through and buying things but I couldn't say how many back-catalogues I've ended up digging into due to downloading something on impulse and loving it. It's cost me a lot of bloody money too

Purely on the Dev front I know probably [thinks] about 4 or 5 people who've downloaded or copied a Dev CD and ended up buying that and others besides.

Yes, it's a risk but if the music is good enough sales will follow.

That´s how i discovered Devin Townsend. I read a review of Terria but had no opportunity to listen to it. So i downloaded it and it blowed my mind. Now i own 13 original Devin Townsend & SYL albums, 1 VHS, 1 DVD and a fucking tee-shirt.

Oh and, yes, i´m telling all my friends about it all the time.

But in case of synchestra i will resist and won´t download it, because it´s not so long to the release and i just want to listen to it for the first time in it´s full glory (hopefully).

I forgot: Because of discovering Dev i got into some other bands someway related to him. So i own original albums of Soilwork, Meshuggah, Cop Shoot Cop, Mad Capsule Markets, Melvins and some more which i maybe never would have heard of.

That's right. Except, in this case, we already know Devin Townsend (Band) so we don't have to 'discover' it. I will wait till I can buy the album, to increase the intensity of the first listen.

Damn. We're losing!

Liars: 86

What do you mean by that?

Do you think that is impossible to wait until the album release?

Why should that people have lied?

Why does everyone on this board take everything so fucking seriously?

I don't take it seriously;

Damn you.



That said. I'm holding off cause I really want to open the album, read the book, hear it on my headphones and have the total experience.

But damn it's tough.
