Ok now I am a little bit angry. Universal is giving the uk customers a bonus track and not everyone else!!!??? That is absurd. I am so mad right now I may not by exile. Any reason for this?

Go Dawgs!

Yes, you just said so: because you are so mad right now.

You can order abroad.
I don't see any problem with that.

Japanese issues offer very often bonus trax, nobody complains. On the contrary...

So they can sell it as an unreleased B-side on a future single from the collection. Relax, it'll cost you a $1 to download it. More if you buy a CD or 45rpm. The Stones, and their record companies, have been doing this for eons.

R, Eventually you are correct. I don't want to wait and I don't believe "stealing" music by illegally downloading.
Mitch, according to universal's website they are sending an email to uk customers who order from thier website and then they download it. The catch is the uk shipping address! I have no problems ordering from uk or japan it's just the way they are going about it. They are charging me the same price as uk customers and I have been a loyal universal customer buying ya yas and the reissues. Eventually I will get the song but it still ticks me off.

Go Dawgs!

From what I've been able to figure out, the 'bonus' track is Aladdin Story or whatever it's called - that's on the second disc. The only track that is not on it is All Down The Line.

makes a distinct change that the UK fanbase is being 'prioritized' over the U.S

There will be no "bonus track", only a "free" download for those, who will directly buy this boxset from UMG.UK:

[store.universal-music.co.uk]

So you can prelisten to a song you have already payed for.

So what's the problem? Order from amazon.co.uk instead.

If I want an American edition of a CD or DVD - especially DVDs as they come out earlier in the US - I buy from amazon.com

How does one "prelisten" when you still have to listen to it?

You first have to join up so you can pre-pay before you can pre-listen
