Sorry to hear it happened to other people. Hopefully they'll get it back up and running properly.
I'm listening on Spotify now. Love this album!

This is why the album called "The Heart of Noise".

I think the DRM on the download files has gone completely terrible. Mostly white noise here also. Though it's the most accurate title I guess!

No. Like all online retailers run by the record companies themselves (or on behalf of them) suck big time. It's pretty incredible how they manage to fuck up. Universal's store fucked up every single Mike Oldfield shipment to me. They still owe me money from one that I never got. I've given up on reclaiming it.
And they are really wondering why people are downloading music illegally...

Only reason I don't have a disc is because the second boxset was delayed

Hi everyone,
I am reading you all having problems with downloads, be sure this has been forwarded at this very moment to Jarre's management. Even if the Heart of "Noise" joke made me chuckle, this is obviously unacceptable for you, wherever the problem occurred. Hopefully fixed soon. I'll personally keep you updated.

Let's hope so, by goodness!

I really liked the following tracks : "Why this, Why that and Why" (super track) , Brick England, Heart of Noise 1/2, Swipe to Right , Gisele, Here for you, Falling down and Circus.
Exit and The Architect they are also good .. although I would classify them as soundscapes.
These creatures reminds me Enya a lot as Circus reminds me Daft Punk.

Joke? What?

I love "Why This, Why That and Why". I want to hear an instrumental version of it. Not because Dieter Meiers voice is annoying. No, his voice is iconic. But only for the curiosity.
Can't wait to see and hear the new songs live at the Electronica World tour. I still wonder how they will solve the problem with the collaborations. They will not come all to joining the tour. May be we will think about something similar like the tour of the Gorillaz with screens on stage and virtual images of the collaborated artists. I don't know. Still guessing!
Greetings,
Christophe

Did somebody check the DR values?
If you download the stems for HOT and export them yourself would it be better?
I've posted the DR results a few pages ago. Average DR of 4
The picture says it all:
