    If going the digital download route is it worth spending the extra for ALAC quality? Can you still play ALAC on your iPhone/iPad?
    Yes, if you don’t mind taking up 1-1.5 GB of space on your iPhone/iPad for one show.


    That's why you use Android phones with microsd slots built in, so you can put a big memory card in it.  Works great for music ;)

    That is one advantage.  I personally don't put music on my phone.

    Even if you did, most phones don't have a good enough DAC to make it worth using FLAC over mp3 anyway.

    That's a fair point.   I put some music on my phone to listen to through my bluetooth speaker at work.   If I'm listening on headphones it's usually through my portable player which is better than my phone.

    Ordered both nights. Night one I received Saturday but night two not a word since order confirmation.

    I got a rude reply from 10 Club about preorder. I asked why pre order them if we can’t get them on or close to release. The reply I got is that that’s not the definition of pre order with a wiki pedia link. 

    After a couple emails with Nugs, I got an answer. They should ship Friday due to unforeseen manufacturing issues.

    Wow.  That's ridiculous.  But not really surprising....

    No matter what happens, way better than bootlegs recorded from the audience.

    Anyone else receive their CD boots yet? I got mine yesterday and they are all screwed up. None of the songs are named, they are just track 1, track 2 etc. Also, the labels are all messed up, disc 1 is actually disc 2. 


    Same deal here... Received both nights on CD a couple days ago.
    Night 1 the discs are not in the CDDB and you have to enter the track names 
    Night 2 is the real bummer!!!  Disc 1 is labeled Disc 1 but contains Disc 2 material so you get two Disc 2's and no Disc 1! Bummer!!!
    contacted tenclub via email but no reply yet.

    Contact nugs instead. https://help.nugs.net/support/tickets/new

    Ten Club reallly has no hand in the process other than taking the order.

    Perhaps these are the unforeseen manufacturing issue that movuaghn spoke about, and some unlucky customers received them before the errors were caught.

    Got shipping notice from 10C!  I assume that means Nugs already shipped them and I might get them very soon?!

    usually the color.  Silver looks silver.   Even the most silver looking burned disc has a yellow tinge to it.  Plus you could read the inner hub of the disc to see what it says.   It probably says the manufacturer of the disc and type of disc.

    Can I please ask what the deal is about silver pressed CD's please. Thanks in advance.
    My understanding is the silver CDs hold up longer over time. Sound wise, there would be no difference. 
    Yah, the dye inside burn discs doesn't last as long as silver pressed cd's.  Plus everyone can burn cd's, so buying a professional cd, and having it burned.  It makes it feel a little do it at home like.... :)
    Wait, so if I order the CD's now, they are basically just cheap burned discs, nothing more? Is the sound going to be any better than an .mp3 to someone who's not an audiophile? 
    You're making some confusion here.. in the case of silver pressed vs burned to order discs what's affected is not the sound quality per se, in fact it's the same (and better than mp3's of course). The thing is: silver pressed discs will be much more durature and you'll not have to worry about the discs being unreadable after some years.. that is not to say your burned to order disc will turn to shit after few years (unless you treat it with no care at all), but they will be much more sensitive to scuffs, sunlight, etc..
    Thanks. Just  seems for $18 it should be a silver pressed and not a burned disc but I guess that's the world we live in.
    So I get it's easier and less costly to have the cds burned but I agree, paying almost $20 for what I could rip off of YouTube or anywhere else is ridiculous if Im not getting the professional quality product I paid for. I already dropped an ass load of money at the actual shows itself, it's just card stock and a couple burned discs. A heads up on silver pressed cds would have been something worth knowing. why is it so hard for them to be real with us and let us know the preorder has X amount of silver pressings and once the preorder is done they will be simple burned discs? And has anyone started a "where is PJ Wrigley 2013" thread yet?

    Yeah, they should at least have common curtesy of giving you a Webster's Dictionary link! Hahaha I'd be so butthurt if they did that to me. "Hi I have a question about your product". "Go f*** yourself". "Okay thanks".

    I actually got a shipping email from Nugs last night after I already received the one from 10C.  Shipment hasn't moved yet.  Ugh!

    Let's hope the quality is good. It would be pretty shitty to pay $17 for a burned CD that we could do ourselves for a couple bucks
