So I haven't had the chance to order the DVD yet and looking into buying it right now and... I can't get it anywhere seemingly for a decent price. The official website had it for only €16 but sold out (why the hell is the 5.1 mix only available in the Limited Edition anyway!?) for the CD + DVD combo, but the DVD release pretty much everywhere else is at least €25 and not available anymore. What is this all about!? :|

All I can say is that Return To Ommadawn is worth every penny. The 5.1 mix is exeptionally good.
Mike is literally there hovering around in your listening room and playing right in front of you.
As I see it the vinyl and the whole package is just pure perfection into last detail.
Well except maybe for the included code to audio files (.M4A) with the vinyl album.
They are just too compressed to endure. It will sound much better if you rip the CD or get the 24/96 FLAC files.

The two disc edition is still nowhere available here close by. What the hell is Universal doing with the shipment of this!?

We don't have a credit card here. We used to have one because of my sister traveling, but she's back home so it just expired a while ago. So unfortunately I can't.
