what if the "digital download" was in flac?
and besides that, how can this be disappointing since it's what happens with every single record out there? First digital leak (this time kinda "authorized" and hopefully much better done than the shitty rips people "who want to desperately hear the new music" gladly download), then regular album out. Nothing strange there, it's just that they don't have/"use" a label and distribution as of now. I don't see many differences between this and the usual "releases' path", I don't even see this as a "groundbreaking" thing, it might be a bit strange that a band with millions of fans is doing this, but it's nothing THAT special imo.
