Im in Africa, a Brit abroad, but count myself as one of his 5 African fans so I hope they have secured enough space for the 5 of us as well. smile

Ah. In that case you'll probably get them in the post on several floppy discs.

Indeed. So what we looking at here? 1.44mb a disc? Thats about 20 discs per (wav) song on average. 13 songs would require 260 discs. Through the post, to Zambia would take about 3 months. Cost of postage around $250 (payable by the receiver). So all in all, this is looking like the bargain of the year!

Now, how does one go about burning 260 floppy discs to CD?

I received a respnse from Prince Store <Princestore@warnermusic.com> :

Thank you for contacting us! We are sorry to hear you are having trouble accessing your download. Here is a link you can use to download your music:

It contains direct non-personalized links to the downloads and requires no authentication or code.

I won't quote them here. biggrin

It seems I'm not the only one that didn't receive any emails for the pre-order after the release.
