Can you all just stop the arguing and complaining and insulting?

All the evidence on this board over the past several years or more would seem to point towards: unlikely. This board's reputation for trolling and negativity and general lawlessness is infamous in the wider film music community.

All day long with complaints about this thread and we're sick of it. Contain yourselves or it will be shut down. We don't have time to read every post and chase after every person whose opinions not everybody agrees with, nor are we interested in mediating interpersonal feuds. Be civil to each other or shut it.

Sad to learn that casual bigotry is waved away with "we don't have time to read every post". Some people have flagrantly violated multiple board rules in this thread, and the moderator can't be bothered. Frankly I expected better from you rather than a mere blanket call for civility, acting as if everyone's un-civil behavior in this thread is somehow equivalent. Seems to me that there's no reason to have a "report abuse" button if a moderator can't be bothered to actually read posts.

I appreciate the information, I'll go look at that Facebook post.

No problem.

Now that I know the CD was available for a full month at DME, and now that I know this information, and things others have told me, I believe those saying there were probably a couple of thousand CDs pressed.

Excellent! But yeah, even a couple thousand copies was far too few for this score. Clearly someone didn't realize the general industrywide increase in LP sales and decrease in CD sales doesn't apply to the film music (or classical) genre.

BTW, I was told by somebody who would know that I was correct, that the CDs and LPs were pressed specifically because John Williams required a physical release, no doubt in his contract.

Well, good on Williams and his contract then. Otherwise nobody would have any physical copies.

Still crossing my fingers that Mike Matessino (backed by Williams of course) can one day make definitive complete releases of all five scores.

Man, learn to read the room. You're just adding to the mods issues and now your insulting them.
Put members on ignore or stop going on your holier-than-thou rants.

I have to imagine many people reported your transphobic ass. Hopefully enough to get you booted off the board.
