    I think the Target version has an "Target only exclusive bonus disc" and then possibly has a code for rock band songs on a game system. Usually (not always) the exclusive bonus disc is like an acoustic 4-5 song ep. At least that is what I have seen in Target for other albums.
    Not sure what the 10club one will have. My guess is they will do something similar to the self titled release. Hard back digi pack cover with maybe a bonus vault show like the nye 92 for self titled.

    From the latest Billboard article on Pearl Jam, entitled "Pearl Jam: 'Back' to the Future":

    "Curtis also balked at the waste involved in having to create different versions of "Backspacer" for various partners, a common requirement of retail exclusives. Instead, the album is encoded with Sony DADC's eBridge technology, which allows purchasers to unlock extra content when they put the disc in their computers.

    The Target discs will link to a virtual "vault" of 11 concerts spanning Pearl Jam's career, from which fans can choose two. The band will also create an organic cotton T-shirt to be sold at Target, with proceeds earmarked for the hunger relief charity Feeding America. And in September, a Cameron Crowe-directed TV ad will air featuring footage shot during a private performance at Seattle's Showbox in late May."

    Yeah, this may be the first time that I buy the album twice if the concert vault download is not available with the 10c disc.

    I have already pre-ordered it through the 10c.

    So...will we be able to download these showsand then share them with each other??? That would be cool!!!!

    I guess I'll preorder the 10C version. I'll probably also go out and pick up the local version that releases on the 18th here. That is the 17th US time, so 3 days early! ;)

    I already pre-ordered the 10club version. We will most likely get it a few days early
    But i'll probably buy the Target version since it has extras
    Shows:
    Seattle Key Arena 9-21-2009

    I preordered the vinyl but purposely didnt get the cd from 10c because I wanted to wait and see what the Target disc would come with.

    I hope we'll be allowed to trade. I'd hate to think I'd need to buy 6 copies to download all 11 vault shows. Hopefully some would be from 2000, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2008 boots that I already have so it would narrow down how many vault shows I would need.

    But then again if the cds are $10-12 at Target, that's $5-6 a vault show, and then I'll be giving out opened PJ cds this Christmas...

    The best idea if we aren't allowed to trade is to make the vault shows downloadable or s small fee.

    im gonna buy the vinyl from 10C or an indie store and the CD from target... and probably download it early and illegally before doing both of those

    I'm going to order the vinyl for sure and I'm not sure what version of the CD I'll get. Probably will just go to Target and get it that morning.

    I'm still waiting for additional details to come out before making a decision. Currently it looks like I'll be buying it from Target based on the "extras" that have been described in the Billboard article. I do really like the hard cover book-style packaging, however.

    Decisions, decisions... :?

    I'm buying all versions x2. :mrgreen:

    Though i'm still waiting for word of a Bluray release with Dolby TrueHD sound quality! drool.gif
  • DB41DB41 Posts: 539
    Sorry if this has been asked already... I'm sure it has.

    Do we know if there is a difference in the Backspacer LP package that 10C is offering as opposed to purchasing it from an independent retailer?

    I think TrueHD is overrated for certain purposes - for a concert Blu-Ray set with no extras, I see no reason why they couldn't just provide a linear PCM track (even with 7.1, there's enough space), like they did for the Last Waltz release, which sounds spectacular!

    I would hope the "vault" shows, which 10C has said nothing about will be 11 concerts that arent already out there. Hello 2007 Im talking to you!

    for avacodo i bought the album along w/ my concert tix because i had no other choice. then the 10c version was announced w/freebootleg what are you gonna do?
  • fr3dlyfr3dly Posts: 1
    damn. want to buy all six, but until i get confirmation of the concerts we get to chose from then i'm gonna be patient.

    Hopefully we'll know what they are prior to its release.

    Almost wish I hadn't pre-ordered from 10C after reading the article - BUT I'm sure the RockBand tracks will be available for purchase as well. Not just a free download for those who buy from Target. Eventually most stuff gets released to DLC just like the 3 tracks with the Ten re-release. It will be interesting to see what concerts will get released though.

    i tell you what---i ordered from the 10c for myself, but my wife wants a copy (& we want those concert downloads!). we have no need for the Rock Band codes. if you want them, they're yours! just shoot me a PM when it goes on sale.
