JohnnyD 1,223 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I live in Florida. Is there anyway to get a physical copy of this issue? I'd love to get it. Even a digital copy to save to my MacBook Pro would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuartalHarmony 543 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I live in the UK and could certainly investigate getting hold of some copies and passing them on to any individuals who’d like one. I’m sure we could come to some arrangement in return. Just PM me if you want to discuss further. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JohnnyD 1,223 Posted November 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2020 "Arrangement in return"? Like an exchange? Exchange with what? Not to cast aspersions, but I think I'll pass. Honestly, is there anyway to get either a physical or digital copy of this upcoming issue of the BBC Music Magazine?

QuartalHarmony 543 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 No, don’t be silly. I was trying to to be subtle, in case some of our legal friends were watching and decided to get punchy. If that’s still too cryptic for you, just PM me and I’ll feel comfortable filling in the blanks for you without feeling like the rest if the world is watching.

JohnnyD 1,223 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 So, the issue will be released tomorrow, according to the date next to the issue link. So I should receive within a few weeks, right? This is only the second time I have ever purchased something from overseas (the first was ordering exclusive hardcover copies of The Silmarillion, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings via HarperCollins Publishing), so I just want to be sure.

Jurassic Shark 12,067 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 It's taken up to a few weeks to my location, and I live in Norway. I'm sure there's a distributor in the USA, but it might be more expensive. If I were to purchase the magazine in Norway, the price would more than double.

Oceadge 4 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 An option for some people might be to check if their local library has a magazine service. I just checked and I was able to subscribe to this magazine from my local library. Newsagents here in Australia import a lot of British magazines so I will be on the lookout for the printed version too! Jurassic Shark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BB-8 3,473 Posted November 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 26, 2020 A pity they didn't commission a new Christmas carol by JW for the cover CD - or at least a new arrangement of Star of Bethlehem or Ring the Hogwarts Bell. ;-) Oh well, The Shepperds' Farewell by Berlioz will have to do for now.
