Ordered.
The US website also accepted 'the netherlands'
Good luck to you all.

For me it was a no-brainer to get...the deluxe set sounds like an awesome package overall...BUT...I can't help but feel that we got more bang for our buck with the deluxe Ghost I-IV than we are with the GDT one...just nit-picking I guess.

I think that's what's keeping a few people I know from pulling the trigger and getting the deluxe GDT.

Keep in mind the listing does say "Appearance and content subject to change". I wouldn't imagine they'd remove stuff...

If you don't want to bother with iTunes, I opened some temp file to find out where the 8-minute trailer comes from. This allowed Firefox to download it for me.

iTunes-free 8 minute Trailer

Mods, if this is against the rules (I don't see why not, it's the official source and for free), obviously feel free to delete the post. Gray areas.

Thanks for that, I don't have iTunes because every time I install it it seems to be insistent on making itself start up with my computer, even if I disable it from doing that.

The sampler is quite beautiful, I am very impressed and am excited to get my hands on the rest of it. Shame I don't have $300 to blow on something.

My order receipt for the deluxe edition says that I opted for the 320Kbps digital download when I'm fairly certain I chose Apple Lossless. I can't find the right contact info; who should I be emailing to get this changed (if it's even possible)?

Maybe?

Better answer is on the FAQ, though:

The 6 Track Sampler is only available in 320kbps MP3 format. You will be able to download in the audio format you have selected from your live receipt at the official release of the full album on December 9, 2011.

[botley]

I think 320 Kbps downloads are included with every order. My receipt has a link to the sampler (which is only available as 320 MP3 right now), and greyed-out "download" links for the HD and 320 flavours of full soundtrack with a "street date" of Dec. 9.

[screwdriver]

so, is everyone else loving the sampler as much as I am?

my receipt has links only to full mp3/flac/lossless album, no dates mentioned, all links lead to to this always failing site https://dragontattoo.sandbaghq.com/
hope it works on december 9th haha

[[Shep]]

So, the current pre-order on Amazon UK has the digipack at £17.99

The GDT site has it at $24.23, which equals £15.46, with international delivery and the download on the 9th.

Nice!

[ManOfAtom]

hello nu-ets. how exciting.


so what's the sketch with 'international'(/not america) ordering? we going through the US page as normal or waiting for the ROW one to work?
don't want to wait ageson shipping over the sea or get hit for customs charges, not that I should for just ordering the CD but I've never had them so maybe customs are backing them up for me...!

[voidnz]

I just bought the deluxe. It's very expensive. I hope I don't regret this haha.

[The Dead Rabbit]

Notice that the post on nin.com says we have "two options right now" does that mean there are other options not yet announced?

[maryelle]

I am positively sick over not having the money for this.

Anyone want to buy an extra one and trade a Ghosts Deluxe LE for it? (I have two of them.) I forget what number it is but it's nothing "special" - not under 100, not "666," not 2500, etc. Pristine condition. ... let me know if you are interested.

[IAmTheExit]

Just downloaded the sampler and am listening now; already cannot wait to buy the full-length.

[sheepdean]

Can someone extract the album art for the sampler for me?

awesome!

Man, they sure made Lisbeth Salander and Harriet Vagner look like the same person.... or is it just me?

they don't look alike to me...at all...

[DigitalChaos]

Well, their faces. Obviously, the hair and clothing is very different. The face looks almost identical. For a bit I was thinking "holy shit, they really decided to change up the story"

[ComaMJ33]

Preordered my Deluxe Edition last night and cannot be more excited. 3 hours, six vinyls, autographs that's all that needs to be said. Even though $300 is expensive I think $300 is a fair price and it was much easier ordering for me than when I preordered the deluxe "Ghosts I-IV." I feel sorry for the people overseas that wanted to buy it, but I don't think they're sold out yet and that they can order now so that's good. February seems light-years away right now. Also, couldn't be more perfect timing on getting ETS back to functionality.

[DigitalChaos]

Here is a side by side. The facial expression is a bit different but you get the idea:




imdb confirms that they are different actors though

[sheepdean]

Cheers, I can never figure out how to do that

if you go into the track info (hit command i in itunes) and go to the artwork tab, you can click and drag the artwork on to your desktop.

I don't have/use iTunes, and I don't really want to download bloatware just to grab album art #lazy

Anyone else notice how some of the instrumentation on the tracks seem almost Eastern influenced (slightly Asian in a sense)? The strings on some of it give me that feeling, especially People Lie All the Time and Oracalcum.

It reminds me strongly of Barry Adamson's early work, who Atticus did work with for some time.
