are you saying that maybe I am just crazy?
maybe you mean that I am paranoid?

you think I am too obsesive??
why?? why do you say so???
I am not? I am not you hear me??

movements*

Great. The pink dye has gone to his head.

He'll have to be put down.

ok. so my hi-fi cd player did not have any trouble with 26
mixes, BUT my portable disc walkie starts skipping at cd 1
track 2 making it totally impossible to listen it (results
in 'error' at track 4). didn't have this with disc 2 (i
THINK)

after some listens I see that this tracks have some failiure
(but nowhere does it skip really)

heroes remix
cd2 track 2 remix

the rest is more or less perfect.

in the 2 cases I mentioned it dosnt jump or stop or anything
but it makes some fucking noises I am not sure if they are a
failure or really from the track...

The only one I've noticed is during the Heroes remix. I've
got two copies of the album and they both do it.

Mine has the noise at the beginning of CD2 TK2. When I hear
this sort of stuff I just assume it's intentional.

There is a skip in Heroes, all right - when looking at the
track with an editor it looks like a real glitch and not
intentional.

Yup, I have those vinyl-sounds as well.
I heard that bastard-noise on the mp3:s as well, and thought
I'd get rid of it with the cd, but no. Still though, It's a
kikk-arse-track.

I heard two skips on disc one. the first was on the heroes
track, I forget which track the other was on. so after
listening to disc one I decided to mail the album back to
cduniverse for a replacement. I still haven't heard disc
two! if the replacement skips as well I'll be pissed. talk
about shitty quality control.

i say we send them all back to warp - make them pay for not
bothering to check the master disc before production

abandon all material things!! leave your body, leave your
material possessions, fly free as a spirit!!

i'm converting all my CDs to mp3s... down with CD players
and scratches...

neetta > there is a malediction on portable CD players! =/

that's not the first time some copies of a CD get
schrizked... the same happened to NIN's And All That Could
Have Been, deluxe edition - and some others.

i think my copy (well it's not mine, it belongs to my
brother actually) is fine...

My original pre-26 mixes mp3 of "Heroes" doesn't have the
glitch so it looks like it was a manufacturing defect.

This sucks - because there's no point in exchanging the CD
because it seems like the whole batch is bad.

My discman can pretty much take care of any cd.
And then all of a sudden I bought 26rmixs and bangthe 2nd cd
wouldn't play. It skipped all the time and stuff. So I
brought it back, got a new one, which is working fine.
Then I also had problems with the first cd. I also brought
that one back and got a new one...

this album should have been called "several hundred glitches
for cash"

skips to buggery in my car (other cds don't) but plays ok in
my hifi

maybe it was manufactured by glitchet & scarper

I get quick drop-outs in several tracks of my copy.

nacmat> Warp sent me a second copy after I pointed out the
drop-out (not glitch or scratch) on Heroes. It seems as if
they still aren't aware that it affects all copies of disc
1.
