The EZTakes folks have increased their server capacity to accomodate "The Wasp Woman" release. You can get the download today, and you also get the Hi Res artwork for the DVD case and Label. go to www.eztakes.com for the download.

I'm really surprised that we can't order the DVD yet. I mean, if they tell us not to expect it this weekend, that's fine, but I'd like to get the ordering out of the way. Oh well.

This little glitch didn't affect me as I've already downloaded it. Now time to watch.

I've been wondering why they don't do pre-orders at all. I don't mean months and months in advance, but like, say, a week before it's released. I suppose it might be due to a deal with EZTakes to encourage the downloads. Anyone know? Yeah, I just like getting the ordering out of the way, too. ;D

Probably something to do with increased costs (or time and effort on their part) to handle pre-orders.

They said they can't take pre-orders because of something to do with paypal's system. (sorry i didn't keep the reply)

Well Paypal takes your money and pays it into their account as soon as you order, and if you needed a refund for whatever reason it would cost them to transfer the funds back to you I think so that makes sense. Pre-ordering on Amazon or something is different as they handle the money themselves and so don't charge until the item is sent. Using Paypal to handle the money means you can't do this.

(sorry i didn't keep the reply) The Residents take pre-orders on Ralph America's website, and you can pay by PayPal.

This bummed me out yesterday to no end. And now hearing that those people who have downloaded it are giving it good reviews, I'm sitting here just going nuts cause I'm one of those people who are anal about the case.

(sorry i didn't keep the reply) I thought that perhaps CT had a simultaneous release date deal with EZTakes or something. I didn't consider the PayPal angle (I don't often use them, so I'm unfamiliar with how they work).
