Sent that off to my bud for his retirment. He wont send it back, his wife hates me. I wonder why???
Heh -- I was in a brick-and-mortar store (Newbury Comics) a coupla weeks ago and stumbled upon this. I'd probably be embarrassed to say how much I paid for it on those little polycarbonate discs with the pitted aluminum layer At least this version includes two of them l'il discs.
So, yeah, I'm empathetic.
I love this album, though. This makes the third version of it I've bought -- not counting the original on licorice pizza.
Newbury Comics, did you go to the store in Boston? I was there a couple of years ago when visiting to watch the tall ships. That Townshend album is a good one. I bought it on UK import when it first came out. I haven't put it on in years. Maybe I'll give it a spin in a day or so.

No, there's a small one here in a neighboring town. They're (still) scattered around much of northern New England... not quite sure how they've survived while their competitors have gone Tango Uniform but so far they're still plugging along.
Speaking of which: Even the aforementioned small store in West Lebanon NH has a rather remarkable selection of vinyl rekkids -- new and used.
Just sprung for the "Utopia" boxed set. Luckily I have only about ten more CD's that I want but I still have to hold off. I need 10k saved in 18 months.

Ron, just Audioslave that I didn't have, cost five and change.
Sent that off to my bud for his retirment. He wont send it back, his wife hates me. I wonder why???
Buying the cheap stuff, yeah that's still a problem
$5 on some A-slave can be easily forgiven
