C-NOTE official downloads Jan. 2003

I have read that the 5 tracks that make C-NOTE were initially offered as downloads according to some sort of logic, geographical area perhaps? But I don't know how accurate this is. Thought I'd do a little informal survey here.

For example, I received an e-mail on January 3, 2003 (just days after getting links to download Xpectation!) with a link to download "Empty Room" and I live in North America (New Jersey at the time). I had no idea there were other tracks being sent to other people till months later.

What I want to know is, if you were a member of NPGMC year 2 and received an official link via e-mail to download any of the C-NOTE tracks,

Which one(s)?

Where (geographically) are you?

Thanks.

I was a member back then and I also only received the empty room track. bought the others through his other site a few years later (the one where you could buy the chocolate invasion for example)

I remember getting "Empty Room" also (I'm in the US also). I can't remember how I got the other 4 tracks. However, it is true that we had to seek to find the other one.
