I don't care about remix bonus tracks but I will take digipack because of the fact that it is cheaper than normal version at Swamp Music

Why the hell would you buy the same album twice or more times? Sorry, but this is just stupid.

Agreed.

I'll get my hands on what I can find, preferably the Japanese edition but I think I'll only be able to get the regular version. :(

It's for the same reason some people buy more than 1 car, more than 1 house, or maybe even for the same reason dogs lick themselves.
Because they can.

If I can find the digipack, I'll buy that, if not the normal version is fine too.

But if people buy 2 houses, they buy 2 different houses. And when they buy 2 cars, they have different cars. These things are different.

If you buy an album 5 times. It's the same album, with the same songs... I think it's just a waste of money!

But I think, if you can afford it, it's ok to buy different editions of a same album, I mean different editions with different bonus tracks. It's not stupid, they are actually not the same releases, except they just have a same album title and a same basic tracklist. People will do like that if they like an album very much or they want to make a collection or whatever...Of course, I won't buy a same release twice, I just selectively buy different editions to listen to the bonus tracks and then put them into my collection. I won't buy an album if I don't like it. :D

Buying the same album with the same tracks because of 1 Bonus Track is stupid, sorry.

As I'm a collector as well I can easily understand why Victor is buying different releases of the same album. I don't have that much money to spend on my collector hobby, but I will definitely order the big vinyl and the japanese editions.

:D I will buy Japanese version, too, as well as 2 limited editions. As I said, I buy them selectively. It's impossible to buy all editions, I don't have that much money, either.

Yes I know! I have already oredered it. I was talking to fernandotcl. He said that he wants the Japanese version. But he thinks he is not able to get it. So I told him to order it.:wink:

Well fernandotcl, as you see, you can order the Japanese edition at www.hmv.co.jp.

I visited one of the metal shops in my city and they told me they can get a rather cheap copy of the japanese version for me but then I have to wait for some months. So I'm buying the big vinyl first and listen to the album on my LP player. :)

I don't have an international credit card. :(

That and also I'm not sure I'm willing to pay 10 times more for the japanese version plus shipping. I'm exactly on the opposite side of the world, it costs me a bucketload of money to ship a pen from that far.

Yeah, it has a much clearer sound than normal CD players or PCs have and as we have an LP player and I like rarities, it's obvious I'm gonna buy the vinyl version. :lol: I just need to find that friggin' Episode vinyl cheap enough for me to be able to afford buying it. -.-
