I truly believe that we have reached the point where technology has become one with our society, and I can say with 99% certainty that we have passed the point of no return in our relationship with technology.

I don’t mean this in a bad way, of course! Ethical concerns aside… I just hope that as the price of memory decreases, the possibility of transferring our memories onto a digital medium becomes a true reality. It’s one of the things I really wish I could see in my lifetime.

Whens the details for the vinyl and deluxe CD coming out, are they limited editions, I agree with a number of others, itunes sound quality is very poor, and their artwork is of low standard. see you 11th Feb.

IM disappointed. An Vinyl or CD release would be great, but I Tunes?
Not that I won’t buy the CD version, but I hoped for a Deluxe edition.

What a shame. iTunes soxx big time. No flac or a really decent MP3 format (not even LAME encoded, just that inferior Apple crap), instead u get drm. Whoop. Would’ve expected something better from u Massive attack guys. I hope the »real« LP-version has got something better to offer.

Damn, there are no possibility to pre-order Deluxe (or any other) edition in Russia :((((((((( More than that, I’d like to get physical copy of Heligoland, not digital download! Anyway, I cannot get such download either. How fans from countries not supported by iTunes could OFFICIALLY! get this long-awaited release???

Come on – some of us are not fans of mp3s and/or Apple! Extra tracks only available on vinyl, now that would be cool. An actual LP rather than a fake digital one. I’ll be waiting for the vinyl/CD release, even if it doesn’t have the added extras. Big artwork, big sound and no money for Steve Jobs – hurrah!
