Don’t know if you’re interested:
Something really strange happened to me yesterday.
Of course I was on my way to the record shop right after work to geht TPH. And there it was...standing in the shelf just waiting for me. BUT...what the hell....only 15 tracks on it (NO EP)??? I didn’t trust my eyes and I thought: “NOoo..that can’t be. I read that we will get 19 tracks here in Germany on ONE CD all together”
I asked the shop assistant. He was unfriendly and stupid. He really wanted to tell me that it might be sold out already and if he orders it, it might take about a week or even won’t come at all..I left the shop....
Driving to the next shop...SAME POP HITS with only 15 tracks on it and another stupid shop assistant who told me another funny story. “Record companies sometimes release special editions some days later.” Funny thing..she didn’t have any note about a lt. edition in her computer at all...”Aha” I thought...shaking my head and wondering if it might be better to leave this planet.
So I went home...WITHOUT ANY POPHITS at all.
AND YOU GUYS FROM THE RECORD COMPANIES REALLY WONDER WHY PEOPLE KEEP DOWNLOADING SONGS FROM THE INTERNET?????
SHAME ON YOU!
PS: I hopefully will get my TPH tomorrow with mail. one of my friends bought the full version for me in her hometown.

I had my CD reserved at the shop.
When I came there today, they had put an Limited Edition -CD (with the EP) behind for me (very friendly!!)
The guy in the shop told me that if I had not reserved it, it might already have gone.
In the shelfs, only the regular edition was available, so maybe next time you can also reserve your cd!
