To whom it may concern, it has appeared in iTunes fully one half hour early: 11:30PM EST. It may be available all the way across the country. Still nothing at eMusic though.

1:30 AM here, and I am now officially giving up on eMusic and going to bed. I just hope it's there by the time I wake up.

got it from iTunes around 9pm US pacific time which would be midnight on the east coast.
just now getting around to my first play and it sounds great so far at the half way point.
I hate covers albums in general but this one's already got me hooked. The Wildhearts really made this material their own.
Impressive!
now... the wait begins for the physical cd...

Do you know what is fucking ridiculous? I went onto the HMV site to see how much they are charging for this - I will actually get mine from emusic, as I have an account there - and their site won't work with any browser apart from IE. And, given that IE on the MAc died a few years back, there is no way for me, a Mac user, to even think about buying it from there. Silly, silly, silly.

I'm the same, had to bag it off iTunes, but it's up as iTunes Plus only anyway and it's 7.99, not that bad.

Just showed up on eMusic about 6:45AM EST. I had given up and was trying to get it from iTunes but couldn't remember my login. I refreshed the eMusic one last time in my frustration and there it was. Whew!
Syncing it to the iPod now and heading out the door in a half hour.

i've got "stop us..." obviously, and also the two exclusive tracks off the Therapy? best-of, an out of print City of Caterpillar album, and a few odd b-sides i needed by some other bands. and already cancelled the subscription!
i love freebies!
