I know it's overkill, and I'm sick of the repeated posts about it too, but haumea is going to kick my ass if i don't repost everything that Trent posts.

The new Nine Inch Nails record is available RIGHT NOW! (for real this time)

Sorry again about the hassle. Somebody kicked the plug out of our internets, but we're all set now.

I'm led to believe that all the download links have been reset.
So if you were emailed a link yesterday, and your download failed: try it again now.
turkeysock and blasphemae have helped confirm that you can now retry or resume your downloads.
But if anyone has any trouble, please let me know so i can let everyone else know :)
Multiple MANY people are still having some trouble regarding the emailed links
The customer support email is: support@store.nin.com - but I haven't actually heard of anyone receiving a reply.

edit: the site has also been up and down over the last few hours.

Note: one obvious change is that the player link has been removed.
But as you can see, I just linked to it, so knock yourselves out.

Woah. the $300 package option is gone. Did it sell out?
Did Trent just sell $750,000 worth of limited edition packages in 24 hours?
24 hours. 2500 orders. More than 1 person per minute bought the $300 package. (1.7/min, 17/10mins 104/hour more if you factor in the site's downtime.)

update: They've added a note. It IS sold out. But: I STILL have it in my cart.

I get all the way to paypal and it doesn't refuse. But I'm not interested in buying it: If anyone is interested in attempting to purchase the $300 version, contact me with your email address or something.

Test failed. I can check out, but I can't give the link to someone else. Sorry!

I still have no clue why Trent is in Hong Kong.
Is it just a vacation?
Is he having some kind of illegal

penis

surgery?
Oh, right: He personally overseeing strip-searches of everyone who walks in or out of the production factory.
