Bought it the old-fashioned way.....the way I've been getting the new albums for the last 25 years....on the day of release in a record store. I still enjoy the experience.

Oh yes, I forgot the vinyl red single. I bought the album through RS.com. Got it yesterday.
I bought the Cd via the net but got a downloaded version from a friend. Hard to tell any differens.....maybe the mp3s lack warmth, yes? Can somebody please tell me where I can find an real analysis of the sound quality of Cd compered to mp3. And what happens when you burn mp3 to audio cd again?
I first downloaded it, track by track, as long as it wasn't available. I bought it as soon as it was available. I am a completist. I'd buy any shit by the Stones.
No download, but the CD. iTunes, musicload and the various pay-for-your-load-clones may be good for making money but they don't deliver quality. 128k or 160k simply is not CD Quality. Call me audiophile if you want, but I want to hear every instrument that's in the mix if I listen closely enough, and with all these compressed formats, it's simply not possible, because they subtract sounds that are not audible if you don't focus on them specifically.
Bought the CD twice! The european version with copy control didn't play in my player so I brought another one from NYC w/o copy control. So I have one to give away...
I bought the CD. I only heard RJ and SOL behorehand, when I bought the single: the other tracks were all a welcome surprise to me! I haven't downloaded any of it.
Downloaded it first before it was commercially available, then bought it the day it came out (and made copies for a bunch of non-Stones fans who I knew weren't going to buy it anyway - some of them really loved it and went out and bought it as well).
