The DTP really needs its own Christeen (+4 Demos). I want these extra songs so bad! But not bad enough to spend 90 dollars on them. I'm hoping eventually there will be a way. Or a way to get Dinosaurs without having to have a record player. Hmph.
Life would be so much easier if I could just convince myself that downloading was just as good as buying.
It would be nice to have the B-Sides as an alternative album without having to resort to YouTube. Or Torrent sites which I haven't visited in over 5 months and now all have pop-ups
I think if the bonus tracks were to be released in some other format in the future, then the boxset would diminish in dollar and fan exclusivity value. For a while I didn't see the boxset on a bit torrent site I sometimes frequent and I was hoping that fans valued what they had in their possession. However I just noticed that someone has uploaded the lot in lossless format. And yes I do own the boxset.
it'd be cool to see the vinyl tracks put up for lossless download somewhere. vinyl tends to stay appreciated (in terms of interest AND dollar value) even if you can get its content elsewhere, and obviously it's all hand-numbered and such, which will always explode estimated worth anyway. there wouldn't be much to worry about; with vinyl left to the niche market as it is now, a decent percentage of boxset owners probably only heard the tracks on youtube anyway! that's hardly the quality at which people deserve to hear Dev's work.
I'm not sure if jacking up the price is the best way to get rid of leftover merchandise. I'd like to tell my friends to buy it, but they'd laugh in my face if I told them it was $150.
