I received my set today from Amazon UK. Most, if not all of the CDs are warped, visibly so, when looked at edge-wise or placed on a flat surface. I've tried playing three of them so far. My Oppo 95 is able to handle them, but my computer drive chokes on the last few songs of each disc. I want to be able to rip them to put on my iPhone.
I just sent my email to Universal to request the download code and replacement discs.
@mattB2, have they responded to you yet? If so, did you get the downloads, and are they full resolution?
I'm going to try the boiling water trick that I mentioned in my previous post, starting with the first disc. I'll report back with the results, in case anyone's considering trying it also.
The box design and contents are very nice. But I wonder if the cardboard disc holders are responsible for the warping. The discs go in slots, two-high, so that they are overlapping each other. Downward pressure on that, say from the hardcover book, might be causing them to bend. When I get replacement discs, or if my water trick flattens out the ones I have, I'll find another way to store them.
