Just wondering if there will be a download option for 'Red' on iTunes or Musiczeit in the near future.

If I think about it, I can't recall to ever having bought any hotcake in my life...
(hm...seriously wonder if this sentence is still in grammatically correct English).

Pop corn alright
Like it or not, CD it's still being manufactured, still available all over the net and still the audio reference of choice.
Yes they don't seel as much as before but that's an industry issue compounded by the music genre niche.
Otherwise what would be the quality reference, the usual Produced in 24bit/96kHz but for you here is a CD quality mp3, a bit like throwing away the yard/meter reference stick coz close enough is good enough.
Ever wondered why people keep stating that this or that file is as good as a CD, why bother if the CD's dead or irrelevant, or did they wish it was a CD?
I'll buy the CD for sure, and going by history, this will come out on CD and when sold out, downloads will be available.
Manikin and those involved always did the right thing for the loyal audience.
I am yet to hear an intelligent argument why a CD does not make sense (other than can't be bothered ordering/waiting for it, it takes space, cost money to produce, what if it does not sell, and so on).

I thought it might help
Just don't confuse those arguments for a commercial CD release with personal buying preferences or someone's limitations in releasing something.
