God, what a dilemma. Order from the US and get some instrumental and 5.1 mixes, or try to buy earlier than the US releases?

i might do both, get the australian release first so i can hear the album, then order the US version so i can have the 5.1 mix

Yeah, I might, unless the 5.1 mixes are not that good, and I gain the instrumentals elsewhere. Or the book is not 24 pages. I did it for the Ultimate Video Collection. I'm still amazingly peed-off. How could they do this?

I can't play 5.1 so it doesn't affect me too much, but the lack of it for people who CAN play 5.1 sound is very annoying. Still, we are the Aussie battlers and we shall live.

Hi there. Long time reader, first time poster. Can't see any mentions anywhere of this, but I'm sure I heard Richard Wilkins say something along these lines on the Channel Nine Today show this morning...

Hi, Roy! Possibly a phone interview? He's been doing some of those....

Did they mention what day of the week? Or was it just a "Sometime next week" thing?
Sever your leg, please. It's the greatest day.

Does anyone have a capture card/tv tuner or something? I don't think I can stand to watch the Today show...
