Album 56--Physical or Digital?
Okay, guys--I need some advice here.
I have not bought an Odyssey album since 51. (I was given GRC as a gift.) So I have not yet had to deal with the two different purchasing formats---physical and digital (which, for the record, I think is a great idea and makes good buisness sense given the time we live in. But that's another topic. )
So, my question: As you have no doubt read, I am GOING to purchase Album 56. No question. The question that IS there is: which format? I know digital comes out sooner, but are there more goodies in the physical edition that make it worth the wait? (If so, I can be patient.)
So, adbice here?

Yes. Physical is much better. I like to have the physical album. I usually don'y mind waiting until it comes out and I would say it is much better than digital.The Old Judge wrote:Physical

Physical. I know it's a long time to wait, but it's worth it. Physical is much better!

Eh, depends on your budget. Digital is a lot more affordable. I don't really see that many benefits to having it physically other than just showing people that you have it. I only ever listen to Odyssey on my computer or iPod anyway.

Okay, so so far, physical seems the overwhelming choice. I'll leave this poll open though--I'm curious!

Okay, so far, Aaron's the only one who's given me a reason for which format to choose. (Not that your other comments aren't bad!) Like for instance, do you get something in the physical you DON"T get with the digital? (Extra bonus features and the like?)
I prefer the physical, but the digital sometimes comes with bonus features that the hard copy doesn't have

Ah- ha! Such as what, Reddo?
Album 53 had kind of a joke scene at the end of part 12 where Paul talked about if they ever wanted to relaunch the show again just they could just go back to when connie came out of the inspiration station. It was kind of amusing but confused at lot of fans.Jumpman256 wrote:Ah- ha! Such as what, Reddo?
Album 55 had a behind the scenes feature for something old something new.
I haven't heard anything about the 56 bonus features yet though so it's unknown if this will continue
I'd prefer physical, but I also have two little brothers, so a lot of past CD's have gotten scratched or lost. I try to get digital now, especially since our big overseas trip last year.
