personally speaking, my postie is chuffed to bits re the falloff in promo cd supply being directed towards irlm hq as my letterbox is a finger snapping beast. oh, and it also means i have a lot more freedom to listen to what i want to = major bonus.

I forget what streaming software it is that Sony use exactly but I had to use something called the MPE Player to listen to an Island (iirc) promo last week and it didn't work properly and completely fucked my PC up. Cocks. Soundcloud or god forbid an actual DL link, no problem

i have used that MPE once for that guillemots bloke solo album.was bearable experience, (actually i should qualify that, album was shite, the s/w bearable) - but certainly wont be rushing to click the links next time i get any more such offers.and yes, surely it must be a matter of time before soundcloud is bought out by a major and sucked up to be the main avenue for promo supply.

Play MPE works just fine on a Mac. I use it all the time. Get a real computer.
And that Sony thing may well be UK-only; Sony Latin here in the US just sent me a bunch of CDs.
