Yeah there is little hope in the US at the moment of breaking the top 10 album charts. Have to say I think it's wise they have concentrated on the UK for a change this time round rather than trying to crack the US big again. UK is an easier market for them for obvious reason so there is more chance of a bigger pay back. Not really... the UK market is tiny, even if by some fluke they did crack it, big deal. It wouldn't mean much. I hope this isn't a case of "concentrate more on the UK" otherwise, they'd have given up more than I previously thought. They are a UK band and should concentrate on the UK after neglecting it for the USA for so long. The UK is not a massive country in contrast to the USA but is still a relatively big music market.

Hey guys.. this is a message for all DD fans the hour of the digital release on itunes is approaching.. I propose if we all want this album to go to nr 1 and become another historical success, let' s download at least 3 or 4 copies more...30 40 $ i think is worth the price for seeing our idols returning regaining the success they deserve..! a. no way, that's ridiculous. Why would anyone buy multiple digital copies of the same album? I would rather the sales be an accurate indication of the sales, not artificially inflated number because a handful of fans seem to think buying multiple copies is a good idea. Especially on a digital release. I could see it for a CD release as presents but digital release? No way. Agreed. On top of that, which would people rather have: an album that touches enough people to make it a huge seller on it's own merits, or an album that is falsely presented as touching enough people to make it a huge seller because of some people's desperate need to create false validation of their own likes by intentionally tampering with the statistics to create an artificial reality? Maybe we can just convince Soundscan to start using Diebold voting machines so that we can hack in and change the sales totals! If elections can be stolen, I guess a little music chart tampering would be OK, and it would save us all the money of buying 10 downloads!

While I may only be buying one copy for myself on Tuesday, the album would make a nice gift for others!
