like most things, it's obviously not going to be for everyone. there's already been an outcry that there was vinyl in the box set, because supposedly "no-one listens to records anymore". recent figures regarding the increase of sales in vinyl would beg to differ.

Unfortunately, all locked grooves at 33rpm are 1.8 seconds long. This is due to some stupid law called physics.

I've had Magic Window playing since February 2002. Some say it had been playing since the beginning of time.
yep, it's been unavailable to pre-order for about two weeks now, but you can still get hold of it through other channels if you want. HMV have got it apparently
The temporary Warp / Bleep shop in Sheffield was taking pre orders for it at the weekend. There was also a set on display, behind glass. Chosen and Recreated separate issues CD sleeves were there to pick up and look at. I was tempted to order a box set but didn't get round to it.

i dunno about the box set, but they actually had the Chosen and Recreated cd releases for sale, over a week before official release.
