Just wondering if you've ordered the vinyl when do you get the download codes and the father/son track in your download box.
I presume as they don't charge till shipping it wont be till then but i would like to able to listen from today also.

Question answered.
They got put in my download library at some point today after i checked before i left for work so not too bad but i will have a moan.
Only 320k mbs and on facebook some people are posting they have a code for a hi-rez version 96/24 bit, is the code inside the single or double cd or both ?
Many thanks and i'll have a nice listen while driving tomorrow now at least.

I'm eager to know if there are indeed official 24 bit files out there. Waiting for the CD to arrive, I want to learn about the most audiophil option to listen to this record. The WOMAD 320 kbps mp3 files are sitting on my HDD but won't be played until something more audiophil appears.
This is not a nag against those who enjoy the album in their own format. To the mp3 listeners out there: At times, I am jealous at your flexibility

"Included with the special edition double disc version of New Blood is a download code for the high quality album."

Hoping that this info is shedding some light onto this!

I don't think this code is going to be inside either the vinyl or the boxset as that contains the single cd only.
As they are free is anyone willing to share the files or the link if its not a one time only download.
I have some rare tracks to offer back or video/audio footage of the march shows and hopefully from wednesday night if it is allowed.
Thanks in advance, i hope the 24bit ones sound nice. Is a digital link to a amp that can handle the signal is all you need to play them if so i am ready to go.
Just those and then the half blood songs to track down and listen to.

Half blood i believe is the same tracks but peter didnt want to give bowersand wilkins th whole album so he just gave them this. I downloaded the rhythm of the heat from half blood after getting a freetrial and it sounds the same.

Hello.
I just tried the download, but I get the message : "The voucher code entered has already been redeemed, please purchase a full subscription."
Could anybody help ?

Got some help from Bowers & Wilkins, and a kind answer from Rachael Henley. Nice and efficient people !
I love New Blood.

Hmm. I bought the double CD as well as the Deluxe Set and there's no card in either one. Anyone have any idea why not?

Hi, well I have downloaded the FLAC files from the Bowers and Wotsit website, but can anyone tell me what I need to do to play these files?
Thanks
