When you buy it, the files will be in MP4 / Apple format.  However, you can burn the songs to a CD, then re-import them to your computer as standard MP3 files...Unfortunately, Amazon.com doesn't offer the album in their superior MP3 format.

Hell, I see the release of CD as the floodgates opening around here.  Imagine how much great stuff we'll all have to talk about.  Except most of it won't be based almost completely on random speculation for a change...:haha:   Me, I'm looking forward to talking to everyone - and *celebrating with everyone - when GN'R hits full-force once again.

That was my point, although I originally wasn't clear enough.  Before answering any questions on camera, the Harmonix guy should have asked for a pass, credentials, etc. in order to protect himself.  Once he verified that the person asking the questions was legit -  as in, an "on the job," legit reporter (which wasn't the case here) - it's a bit more understandable that he dropped his guard after being told the questions were "off the record."  Again, it's too bad if he sees serious consequences as a result of this...

I'm not sure I buy into the "4 albums at once" part, but I'm honestly most surprised that the VMA rumor might actually have some credibility to it.

Like many here, I feel bad for the guy.  When any "journalist" says "off the record," then that's what it should be.  Yes, the guy made a mistake by opening up to a stranger, but still.  I guess his bigger mistake was not asking to see a press pass or some form of credentials before talking, on the record or otherwise.

Also surprised that the original clip is still up, too.
