I downloaded Hellbent and didn't pay for it, but since I bought both Technique, Brotherhood and Substance twice (once on cassette, then on CD) don't I have credit to spend?
(but yes, I will pay for it when it's available)
If hellbent becomes available to download on its own I'll down load it (legaly of course) even though I don't think it's great, I just have to have it.

Ok, Linus, You have won. I have ordered only 3 copies, but the limited ones with a T-Shirt. :D
Would people be more interested if it was a gatefold double album? remember the feeling, listening to your LP for the first time, drooling over the artwork, nice 12" record to play.
I'm feeling old now
When it's down to 3 quid or something in Fopp as I do still try to pick up stuff on CD by bands I have lots of albums by already...

Why?
Just read your explanation on another post. Fair enough. Each to their own.
Absolutely not.
What is the point.? More pertinently, I will never line the cynical money-grabbing pockets of Warners again as far as any NO/JD related "product" is concerned, until hell freezeth over.
They don't care about the fans, so why the fuck should I care about them bunch of c***s?

Because it also lines the pockets of the artists too. You know, the ones who actually wrote the tunes in the first place. I shall be buying it and also getting it signed. Back of the net!
No; we've all paid for these tracks many times over, apart from Hellbent which I've downloaded. If they'd included some more unreleased tracks ...6... I would have bought it.
Bought it as you get the nice t-shirt as well as a brand new track for £20 inc postage, also a proper remastering job as well.

I've:
a) downloaded "Hellbent"... for free b) ordered the album (the limited edition, to be more accurate) c) cursed Saville/Wakefield (for delievering another white sleeve)

do people really like the t-shirt and album cover?
piss poor if u ask me.
Don't like white t-shirts period, they always end up covered in pawprints and pasta marks that won't go off. I would have considered buying the deluxe package actually had I really liked the t-shirt design.
After having a chance to preview Total, I have decided to pick it up mainly based on the fact that...this is the best sounding New Order release I have heard. The mastering was really well done on this compilation. Though, it really is a shame that the same time and effort couldn't have been put into the 2008 New Order Factory remasters. (I thought the Joy Division remasters where handled quite well, however)
I agree, all the tracks feel alive and vibrant - I am glad I bought it

BTW Buzzcocks have done an album called a different complilation, where they have re recorded some of their earlier output (I assume its a fans favourite compilation) my mate played it to me the other day and I have to say it's brilliant every track sounds really now which is odd when the majority of the songs are from the late 70's. Strange idea but it works
