the response to the pre-order of the special limited edition of in the music has been tremendous! a couple of things - the autographed copies were spoken for very quickly and are no longer available. the variable pricing option for a chance at a low numbered cd was confusing to many. we have explained this in more detail here, where you also have a second chance at a lower number if you choose. thanks for all of your support!
