Funny you should say that.......

I wandered into Virgin a week or so ago in search of jewel box versions
of Alien and picked up a couple of digipaks instead - which turned out
to be quite different inside to the one I got from Ande Garibaldi of
C&D.   The latter had a full pocket to hold the booklet and a
half-pocket to hold the cd while the ones from Virgin had a half pocket
on *both* sides!

PS - there does seem to be a delay on the list of about a day and I'm
sure I've read one message twice!
