Poll: How do you plan on buying Fortress?

Post by Jaredr24 »

So with a few of the preorders now available, how do you plan on buying the record? I'm still debating on buying it off Amazon or buying it in person like I did for AB III...let's see what you guys are planning on doing.

Amazon preorder link (US): http://www.amazon.com/Fortress-Alter-Br ... e+fortress

Be sure to buy it the first week it comes out so it counts toward their sales and makes them higher on the Billboard top 100 :D

Best Buy has "Outright" as an exclusive bonus track! Here's the link to order:

Which option has the one where you buy it at a Best Buy, Target, Walmart, etc? The 4th one?

Yeah that one. Totally forgot you can buy music at those places so that's a :facepalm on my part.
All those places except for maybe Best Buy in my area probably wouldn't have it the day it comes out :/

Pre-order off amazon, auto-rip it for use until it arrives. I'm guessing there'll be a stream of it from when the Japanese version is released, otherwise they'll be risking a fair amount of piracy.
For all of the hope that it brings...

I'll definitely buy it in a brick-and-mortar store on the day it's released, so that's the option I voted for.

Still not sure whether I'll preorder from amazon.jp or something.

I'll buy from iTunes to get it right away, and will need to figure out the fastest way to get a physical copy. I preordered from Amazon UK last time and that worked ok.
Another photobucket casualty... :(

I'm thinking about preordering it on Amazon and getting the fastest shipping possible so they might accidentally send it out a day early but I don't think I'll get that lucky :lol :/

I'm not really sure. I'll likely get it at best buy or something so I have a physical copy, but I'm sure I won't want to wait and download it off of iTunes too. It also depends on what is out there pre-order wise, i.e. autograph copies (easier to just get one somewhere instead of hanging around after a show and getting one signed...if they tour the US well enough), bonus tracks (there should be one right? Only 12 made the cut and they recorded 13), or bonus videos.
Photobucket cash grab.
