I will most definitely buy it. The only reason I'd want to download it would be to listen to it sooner. It's not stopping the money coming out of my pocket for that official case, disc, higher quality tracks, and sleeve.

Me also.And I'll buy both the first release of L+S as well as the brazilian release(I'm working on that).

And much better to buy the album with your own money ;)

I'll buy it online - it will take ages to get here in Singapore. If I find tracks for 'free' download I may download them for preview listening but i'll definitely buy the album CD :-)

Definitely will buy it,  I've managed to resist the temptation to download tracks before it's released  ;) .

I too will buy it. From a honest, ordinary record shop. The sound quality on mp3's is never quite as good as on a CD, and I want to my music in as good quality as possible.

I'll download it. If it sucks, I'll review it and forget about it. If it rules, I'll go out and buy Takk..., and buy Mike's album with my remaining eyeball when I feel comfortable with it.

I'll buy it but after that I'll convert it to mp3 files and mostly listen to those. :)

Exactly!

I only ever download music if I want to make a one off cd of my own selections or if I don't know an artist well enough to know if I like them and just want to have a listen. After 5 years, this is the first time I have ever downloaded a whole album and that was some of Pink Floyds because I can't afford to buy their whole back catalogue and I wanted to experience them asap after missing out for 30 years!

I just hope that I can hold my breath long enough to wait for the 5.1 release (if it's not together with the plain CD version) - I'm quite determined not to fall for the record company's marketing tricks again, as I did with TB2003 - OTOH, I'd like to have an MP3 version for my flash-stick, since the way to work and back again every day is a good time for listening - and I haven't seen any portable SACD player yet (and portable DVD players are a little clumsy), so I'd either have to download or rip from CD. Hope that the 5.1 mix will either be a SACD/CD-A hybrid or DVD-Audio with DTS tracks.

Pre-ordered and paid for, just hope CD-Wow are quick to deliver. Play.com always the best, but didn't have it listed.

But I have downloaded all the available tracks already, just couldn't wait. I think a few good tracks let loose early will just add to the actual CD sales, to hear the rest and to get the better quality.

No question, i will be paying with MONEY for this album, i am very honest, and believe, as Mike is an artist and has made this album then, he deserves the money for it.

Going to walk into a record shop and buy it.(was originaly planning to order from CD-WOW.)So far have managed to resist the temptation of downloading any tracks from L&S before it's release,so that I can hear it complete for the first time.All or nothing!
Some of the comments re:downloaded tracks have very nearly got me to change my mind though.will it prove to be worth the wait? - hope so. :)
