Great that the cd will be released in SA aswell. However what’s the point of wanting to copy the cd? You already have all the songs, but 1 or 2, on the cd...

I found it in Centurion at Music Moods, the other bigger stores like Musica and Look’nListen didn’t have a clue what I was talking about. Sad though. But I guess that the big shops in Joburg will have it - just ask - they’re sometimes quite useless. BTW, I make mp3’s of all my Rox CD’s to listen in my DVD player - like 1 CD with all the albums on. But now I can’t copy LMS - it seems that I have to do it manually! Good luck with all of you trying to find it, it’s difficult. Oh, and PurpleMedusa! Thanks for the tip on Kalahari.Net! Are we still gonna meet in CapeTown in June? I’d love to meet some Rox fans!

@Xarr
I’ve bought my RS copy at Cannel Walk in CT last year June. I’m not in SA at the moment, so I don’t know if they still have it, but they still had a few copies. I bought it at the Macro store.
Good Luck...
Anybody know if the special CD was released in the NL? I’m flying via Schipol in a few weeks to SA and was wondering if I can pick up a copy in the duty free, and buy the book? Anybody know?

EMI got clever, they released the normal version of the album with the same loose sleeve as with the double album. It’s still available in some shops, but you have to ask around here. It will most probably be available in shops like Checkers and Dion. Better check the CD first - I once made a mistake and bought the album for somebody - i had to go back and return it!!

For anyone that’s interested... EMI has finally added TPh to their list of new resleases on their website www.esounds.co.za . nothing special, though!
As for the fan meeting... spoe to couple of fan-friends here in Cape Town... and they sounded very keen on meeting in June. WOuld really like to see Carbon & Erwee & the whole bunch here if possable... are we gonna do this thing or what?

Yep, it’s official. The Pop Hits is in the country. Without the EP, of course. And, it’s copy protected. Still can’t make out whether the blue background is a carpet or blueberries! Anyway, it doesn’t seem that you can copy it, still have to try though. Will let you know.
