Yeah that was me who mentioned Circuit City.  They couldn't even find it at 
mine
so I got it at Best Buy for a few bucks more (no big deal but I know those 
extra 
bucks don't go to the Oils, so why spend more than you have too, especially 
considering I ordered the Australian copy too).  Sometimes it takes Best Buy 
a week or two to put new stuff by artists that aren't big sellers out, so I 
was 
surprised to find it there.  As far as the music goes...it's awesome!  I love 
it!
