It's 2013. I daresay the VAST majority of their fans have access to computers or MP3 players/smart phones!

Indeed. Even my technology-hating 80 year old Grandmother has a PC and a Facebook account. If there's a Fleetwood Mac fan out there who doesn't use a computer, they likely have no idea the band is even touring right now, so FM has no use for them anyway.

At this stage of the game, what it boils down to is they need to get as many sales as possible to prove that they are still a viable band who ISN'T just phoning it in!
By limiting their avenues and doing one vs. the other ~ instead of EVERY option! ~ they're cutting off their noses to spite their faces! |

I agree 100 percent about purchasing music with crappy bitrate. If its a .Wav or a flac I will go for it.Not for a MP3 or AAC file.

I'm one of the lucky ones that is perfectly satisfied with these formats. I have thousands of songs of these types and have loved what I'm hearing for years. But then again I don't own any fancy schmancy sound systems like I did when I was in my 20's and 30's.

Article that mentions the new songs at the end.
The Mac is back: Fleetwood Mac plays the TD Garden on Thursday and the Comcast Center on June 21. And nobody’s giddier over the band’s return than drummer Mick Fleetwood. Behind the kit, his happy mania — eyes bulging, sticks and sweat flying — is an asset. But the 65-year-old rock veteran’s enthusiasm didn’t help reassemble rock’s most incestuous band. “I got a little (ticked) off two years ago that we weren’t working,” Fleetwood said from Los Angeles, where the band had been rehearsing. “I needed to let go and admit that maybe we’d never work again. I’m a Fleetwood Mac nut, this is my whole life since 1967. But I shouldn’t have gotten (ticked) off. I should have realized Stevie* (Nicks) just needed time.” .Nicks had gone her own way. In 2011, she toured with Rod Stewart. She released her first album in a decade, “In Your Dreams.” Then she toured some more. A solo star, Nicks didn’t need the band she helped make one of the world’s biggest (100 million albums sold and counting). “I thought, ‘(Expletive), I’ve got to do something,’” Fleetwood said. “So I opened a lovely restaurant in Maui called Fleetwood’s On Front Street, where I’m sort of the John Cleese character in ‘Fawlty Towers.’ ” But once the place was running, he needed something else. He needed rock ’n’ roll. Without Nicks, Fleetwood gathered singer/guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and bassist John McVie for jam sessions in Hawaii. It was just for fun, just to stay fit behind the kit. But it quickly brought back Fleetwood’s hunger for a reunion. “We went in the studio and recorded a whole load of stuff, some of the best stuff Lindsey has ever written,” he said. “We knew Stevie was busy, but we wanted to send her a message. These songs were a giant calling card to her. “Many months later, Stevie spent some time with Lindsey and they started singing together,” Fleetwood said. “These were songs Lindsey had written with her in mind. So, yes, I’m happy to say that we’re going on the road, and we’ll be doing two of these new songs.” For two decades, every Mac tour and album has felt like a finale — the last tour was in 2009, the last album in 2003. The revelation that the reunion tour will debut new material has been totally unexpected. “We just made the decision to put a few of these songs on iTunes,” Fleetwood said — the EP is expected to drop any day. “It’s important to us that we’re not just treading water creatively. My dream is to finish these hugely gorgeous songs from Lindsey, get three songs from Stevie, and we’ll have a whole Fleetwood Mac album.”But for now he’ll have to be patient. Just like his fellow fans, he’s learned Fleetwood Mac can’t be rushed. http://bostonherald.com/entertainmen...with_new_songs |

I wonder why only 3 songs from Stevie? The last time she only had 3 songs on a Fleetwood Mac album was Tango In The Night, and obviously that's because there was still a third songwriter in the fold.

This band obviously is confused as to what "a few days" means.

What's the money on Lindsey still saying "in a few days" when they play Dublin in September? I'm hoping for a surprise release at the start of next week since it's my birthday on Wednesday
