Will You Wait to Hear Gigaton For the First Time Until You Receive Your Order?

Or if it doesn't arrive by Friday, you'll be chomping at the bit to stream until you have a physical copy?  I'm debating whether to wait for my copy and not listen until I can spin it.
I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    Hell no, streaming it as soon as it drops on Amazon HD. I ordered the CD from Amazon and have no shipping date yet, so no idea how long it would be.

    I'm considering waiting until Saturday and if nothing by the afternoon, I'll bust it out on Spotify.

    Still waiting on my vinyl bundle. Either way I was always going to obtain through iTunes so that I would have this on my devices to play outside of home, in the car, bluetooth devices, etc... So I will be listening to this the very first chance I have, either digitally or hopefully the bundle pre order comes in by tomorrow. Had tix to experience through the dolby atmos which I was really looking forward to.

    You'd have to be insane to wait for physical copy, imo. I mean why.

    It's just what I do! Love the smell of the booklets that come with the discs. Open it up, put it in the player and read through the attached booklets. 

    It's a thing. No, when essential me leaves to report to my essential job tomorrow morning, it may be playing on SXM22. I cannot control that.  ;)

    Definitely waiting.  Even if it’s a few weeks its all good. I’ve been working non stop and am never at home anymore so no time for it anyway right now.  Totally different experience opening a gift up like a cd or record than streaming it or downloading it to me, I love that smell!
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    Exactly this. What’s the difference if you listen to it today or in 2 weeks. The music will be the same and won’t change. I will wait until I receive my vinyl, and listen to the album front to back then.

    Waiting for the physical copy so I can have as tangible a first-time experience as possible, with the lyrics and art work in my hands. That said, if it ain't in tomorrow's mail, I am going with the digital version.

    No way.  I didn't pre-order one so I will be hitting up Spotify first thing in the morning.  Waiting for a local record shop to have it on hand for curbside pick up!

    My CD from Amazon is not scheduled to arrive until Tuesday, but I've been listening all week - someone dropboxed me a 320k rip.  There was no way I could wait to hear it.

    No, I'll listen by any legal means available.  CD appears to be arriving about 2:00PM 03/27.  That's when the mail usually arrives.  If it is streaming somewhere legally, I'll stream it.  Not waiting for physical CD.
    Up here so high I start to shake, Up here so high the sky I scrape, I've no fear but for falling down, So look out below I am falling now, Falling down,...not staying down, Could’ve held me up, rather tear me down, Drown in the river
