I hope you all realize that you're just reserving your copy. They don't have the physical CD's yet. They're not going to have them until the third week of March.
It says they'll ship when they get it in from the distrbutor. Usually when you pre-order from them, it comes a bit earlier than they say. They'll probably ship a bit sooner than the the third week of March, anyway.
I always wait till they hit stores. I think pre-ordering CD's is pointless, unless there's no where you can buy them. For TABOO, hundreds and hundreds of people pre-ordered the CD. They finally recorded it and distributed it, and I had my copy from the store weeks before they shipped out to anyone. I just think it's kind of pointless.

If your plan is to wait and buy this specific CD from Barnes and Noble or whatever, it'll take longer. The point of this is that you're going to have it before it's actually in stores, since you're ordering it directly from the record company. If you're against pre-ordering, then wait until their website says you can buy it from them and they're in stock. Chances are that will still be before you can find it in a store or elsewhere online.
No, I'm not against it at all! I just remember that for TABOO I bought mine in stores, any my friend that had pre-ordered it, got it literally 3 weeks later. And I'm also hoping that Virgin gets this one in a week or so early, as they usually do

OK thanks for the advice. I was just not sure about the whole $20 thing. I know its not a bad price, but if it were to be sold for a bit less in stores I would get a little tifed if i paid more. I'm still very proud that i got my Phantom movie soundtrack double disk for $15 :)

Okay, so it hit my banking account on the 22nd and I got the e-mail saying that it would be shipping, and I'm assuming everybody else did got that too, but I was just wondering...HAS ANYBODY GOTTEN THEIR CD YET??? I'm dying to listen to it!
