Thompson Twins - Into The Gap blu ray audio #29 in the SDE series

[artwwweb]

Indeed, the numbers are good....Sold Out...unless I'm very much mistaken

As it's a pre-order with a limited time rather than a limited number, it's not defintite that the numbers are good. But I'm pretty sure they will be!

Indeed, the 10 day pre-order window closed on Sat 5 October 2024.

Looking at previous SDE releases, the minimum printed 'unit' quantities have been 750 (for Gilbert O'Sullivan, Driven), 1000 (for Ten Years After, A Space in Time), 1500 (for xPropaganda, The Heart Is Strange) and 1750 (for Orbital, Optical Delusion).

I wonder what the absolute minimum print quantity is for Paul to make a decent profit out of these exclusive releases?!

I’m always shocked by -what to me seems like, ultra low numbers for such a golden opportunity to obtain great sounding physical discs of these artists. Hopefully as the word expands of this series the numbers will increase. With all the surround titles released in the past couple years (industry wide) it does seem like we’ve started crawling out of the pits.

Let’s get some Quick Step & Side Kick also please

Sadly, there must be huge number of music enthusiasts who haven't discovered SDE yet...

With regard to 'unit' sales... In the late 70's/early 80's when I worked weekends in various record shops, we would often shift hundreds of units of the same singles (and sometimes albums) in one day. People would be queuing outside the stores. My, how times have changed!

Good point, well presented. Paul may have only sold 10 copies

Paul has indicated in another thread that The Who “Who’s Next” was 5000 copies. That’s really interesting and good news. There’s lots more surround lovers out there than I thought….and it’s good to see. With this sort of volume, it’ll keep SDE in business. I’ll be very interested to hear what the numbers end up being for Elton John “Diamonds”

I guess the demand will depend on whether this SDE release gets mentioned on EJ's website and the related regular subscriber emails. I think last week there was a vinyl version of Diamonds being promoted on the emails so this blu-ray might be on the next one. If it is I suspect Paul won't be getting much of a Xmas break with a 27 Dec release date. A double edged sword if ever there was!
