I've just been told by HMV UK that the new VOI-VOD cd is on order with a release date of March 4th (fine and wonderful)

However, the CD is distributed to HMV by CARGO DISTRIBUTION who have a standard delivery window of 4-6 weeks, and to make matters worse, will not ship ANYTHING unless the HMV order is more than 300 GBP.

Basically HMV UK have apologised (at gunpoint) and have suggested that I go straight to the record label direct and complain about the distribution in the UK.

So please join me in saying F**K YOU to Cargo distribution - thanks for nothing.
