Oh, I meant I got the CD, but expect as soon as everyone starts talking about the vinyl, I will regret CD. I opted for the CD version mostly because I felt the listening experience would be better. It didn't hurt that it was much cheaper. The vinyl looks like it will be available in stores, so maybe I will break down and buy only parts that seem to work and are not too broken up.
