I mean, I got my preorder package with my physical album copy and my lithograph (which I love!), so it's like... I don't want to then go onto iTunes and buy "Oh Undone" for $1.30 and then go onto Amazon and buy "Blow The Wind" for another 99c, and while I'd love to be able to get "Flowers" - my favorite of all the new songs - it's not available anywhere in the US.
That's exactly what bums me out. I wouldn't even mind buying single tracks in addition to the physical album copy though it would be annoying, but, like Marti, as a Continental-European I don't even have the opportunity to do so. If things go bad (= nobody'll put the songs on youtube) I just don't get a chance to listen to the studio versions and, as I am absolutely willing to pay for them, I feel kind of neglected and, frankly, a bit pissed off.

Same goes for the lithograph, as Marti already mentioned.
