Then if you don't like what's on the CD, you don't have to buy it. That's why they offer both options. I don't like the idea of us thinking we can run the LPU. It seems ungrateful. I want exclusive stuff as much as anyone else but all of this seems so spoiled.

I have to agree with this. To the person above who talked about how paying for something gives you the right to let your voice be heard, I agree 100%, but there's one problem. You aren't paying for the CD. You are paying for the LPU membership. And last time I checked, LPU7 provided an LPU membership. That's all LP and their people are obligated to give us. If you don't like it, that sucks, and I didn't like the CD last year either, but we can't be so spoiled. If LP gives us a website dedicated to the hardcore fans, they have done what they are obligated to do for our money. The CD is a bonus. EDIT AGAIN: I do agree with the point made in Hahninator's petition that says we should be given something special in return for being the hardcore fans that give money to the band to be included in the LPU. And the live tracks that we all have access to are not very special. All I'm saying is whatever they do, they do. There is no obligation for a CD at all. But here's to hoping we get some new music this year.

I don't know that this is necessary. Someone on the LPU pointed out that the odd number LPU CDs have live tracks, and the even number ones have b-sides, demos, new song stuff. Gives us hope for the LPU8 CD. EDIT: as the post above says, 4 and 6 had unreleased stuff so I think 8 will too, without this petition. But worth a shot anyway I suppose.
