    There is apparently a new iPod nano coming out. Read about it yesterday on iLounge.

    http://www.freepatentsonline.com/3789309.html - I wonder if it's the same sort of thing?


    im still expecting a physical item. There has to be some funky online variants to but theres gonna be something physical there that big Paul wants us to go and purchase. Maybe hes making something so cool that people will just have to buy it rather than download. Im pumped. Time will tell (or some other comments from big Paul)

    I agree, this will possibly be a way of trying to combat illegal Internet downloads by making the CD special. Might be a Pop Up Edge like on the PopMart DVD


  4. After the last range of iPods, hopefully not. It has to be something digital, new age, 21st century...Maybe a memory card you stick in your phone or music player, and have the artwork there as a bonus - it's digital, it's exists within ease of efficiencies and it's visual.


    Some suggestions I've read:

    - CD + DVD + Digital PDF booklet (or web download of exclusive tracks).
    - Interactive visual artwork of some sort packaged with a digital download
  5. Damn this is exciting! I think the ipod idea sounds most probable. They are basically the spokesmen of the ipod, so I think it will have something to do with that. Maybe that thing they're filming in Spain IS a commercial. It will be a commercial for the new ipod, but also for their new cd in some format. Maybe when you buy the new ipod the cd will be on it haha! But I agree with Gerard, hopefully there will be a physical cd that I can go to FutureShop around the corner and buy and take home and put in my stereo and...sorry, got carried away there.

    I hear it was going to be a pop up Paul McGuinness, but the album cover would have to be the same size as an A4 sheet of paper

  11. borderline off topic. . . keep it neat (and preferably relevant dudes)
  12. The Rolling Stones tried the USB idea for their latest release 'Shine A Light'. Not sure how it did sales wise, but it was expensive
