The single, maybe; the whole album, no. I'm not one for d/l'ing entire albums, even if I'm going to buy them anyway. It just doesn't feel right somehow and it spoils the surprise IMO.

Sure you'll buy it, but...

Will you download on the internet New Order's upcoming album prior to its release?

MLDonkey - works on Linux. Bit hard to get used to the whole using-your-browser-as-the-client thingy...
i have no idea what this means.
we only have it because my roommate's father downloaded it onto her computer because he doesn't have a copy of windows to put on it, and neither of us can shell out the money for a legal copy of the thing! :(
it's okay to download it. but you have to go and buy it. i think every NO fan is going to buy the album and of course the 1st single.
i bought many albums after i download it before. interpol or the killers actually.if it's great music i have no problem to buy it. all the other stuff will be deleted from my harddisk...
and the fact that is new material from NO available and i have the chance to listen to it... 
have no need to download the new album illegally,will get a promo copy via a friend @ london as soon as promo copies are available!
would possibly have a look at the p2p to see if theres any difference tho!
regards

Bah! I'll order it on the net if that happens.
Problem with that is that it removes sales from the North American releases... so the idiots wonder why the album didn't sell well, it's because the fan base bought the import!
Definately wait till it comes out...I know it'll be torture, but hearing it fresh and in it's entirety (sic) with the best possible quality will be the only way.
I may even stay away from this board to get a fresh, unbiased opinion of it...
Nah, probably not :p
i'm now back to the land of microsoft (which i understand), so i'll most likely download it.
Yup, I'd download everything, but I'd be waiting outside the record store to buy the official release on the Monday...
When 'Get Ready' was about to be released, I got a promo copy of the full album around 3 weeks in advance, but I still bought it on release date.
I'm sure that 99% of people here who would download previews would buy the official release, just to be able to have the 'Real Thing' (no, not Gwen...) in their sweaty little mitts - buy the album, go to the pub, peel off the stickers, read the inlay, have more beer, etc... Oh, and listen to the CD/vinyl when you get home, trying not to lose the new purchase on the bus in a drunken stupor.
I aint botherecabout the banal studio stuff they put out.
Get out there and gig yer Fat Bastards
