icantremember Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Hey all, I purchased the Vinyl pre-order on Sunday evening (6/28) and the only download link I see in my account at http://wilco.kungfustore.com/login is for "You Never Know." I do not see the download link for the full Wilco (The Album). I replied to their "Downloads Ready" email just a few minutes ago... Anyone else having trouble? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gopokes Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I can't even get the site to load. I've been watching the mac umbrella for three minutes now..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
icantremember Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 I was having some trouble with that, too...I tried from another computer and it was fine there. Now I can get to the site but I can't get the download Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EtotheG Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Yeah, I've been trying since last night to download the new album. The only thing I'm getting (when the site actually loads) is the "You Never Know" download, not the whole album. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gopokes Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I now can log on to the site but only see the You Never Know download as well. This is frustrating..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
icantremember Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 My download just completed. Here's the email reply I got from kungfustore.com: We are working on the problem now and hope to have it rectified within the hour and the files should be available after 11:30 AM. The server crashed at 12:30 due to the overload of traffic and it apparently reset to the backup of the site that existed prior to midnight, without the album file. The server will be offline for approximately 20 minutes and should reappear with the working files ready to download. We appreciate your patience while this problem is fixed.

gogo Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I was having trouble a few hours ago, but it just worked for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jules Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Just curious; what are the downloads? I have the link to try them, but I don't know what they are. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gogo Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 They're .m4a files of the album tracks (no extras or anything). I haven't listened to them yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JMal Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Did everyone get a CD with their vinyl? Just wondering cause if so, why are you worried about downloads? Just rip the CD... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
icantremember Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 Did everyone get a CD with their vinyl? Just wondering cause if so, why are you worried about downloads? Just rip the CD...Sure, I'll rip the CD, but I didn't pay for "express" shipping because I knew the download would be available... ...and then I couldn't get it......but then I did...

gogo Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Did everyone get a CD with their vinyl? Just wondering cause if so, why are you worried about downloads? Just rip the CD...I have no idea if this is true, I'm just thinking the downloads might be slightly better quality than a rip from the CD. Not that there would necessarily be anything wrong with the rip, but there's always the possibility of blips from a rip. No big whoop either way, for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
saul goode Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 "Did everyone get a CD with their vinyl? Just wondering cause if so, why are you worried about downloads? Just rip the CD... " I pre-ordered the LP, and didn't get the CD. No big deal, but I thought the CD would be included. Did this happen to anyone else? Thanks, SG Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dunnright00 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I pre-ordered and got the CD before the download was available so, what do I want the download now for? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moss Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I now have the new album on vinyl, the CD that came with the vinyl, the CD with all the liner notes and everything, the CD I burnt a month ago, and all the tracks on my hard drive. I think I'm good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sandyriz Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I preordered the CD - still waiting. Got the download, but really want the plastic. The tracking indicates basically nothing. Anyone else still waiting? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
