Hello,
I was thinking, all of SCANDAL's records are available on the iTunes store, so I assume that Queens Are Trumps will be made available to purchase as well.

I am interested in conducting an experiment that includes all Australian fans choosing iTunes as their preferred method for purchasing SCANDAL's new album. Who knows, if we all decide to do this, it may even chart

I don't know if this is a stupid idea but I am just interested to see if this is possible. So I invite all Australian fans to share their opinion on this idea.

I also think this is a great way to purchase SCANDAL's new album as it supports their music and it is also less tedious than ordering a physical copy online.

For those who think this is a great idea, I invite you to tell your non scandal-heaven friends to purchase their new album on iTunes, start a Facebook group, start a Tumblr campaign whatever, use whatever social networking methods that are readily available!

Anyway, regardless whether this takes off or not, I think all Australian fans should consider purchasing their album anyway, whether it be on iTunes or whatever, we owe it to them as fans and since they don't tour it is the only way in which we can show them that we appreciate their music.

Ciao....

Yes yes.... yes ok cool

It probably is the most cost effective way for us down here to support SCANDAL. Completely I buy SCANDAL's albums off iTunes if their worth buying... I've bought Baby Action and I'm looking forward to Queen are Trumps popping up on the 26th of this month! :3

These past few days I was planning to go through all the hassle of ordering and receiving a physical copy from online, probably because of the sentimentality of owning one. But with it all considered, whatever method has its pros and cons, especially the physical copy way.

Yeah, buying it from iTunes seems to be the best idea, unless Aussie music stores start stocking SCANDAL releases (I don't think I've ever seen one in JB Hi-Fi, HMV, or any place).

I do like the idea of the Facebook group and even maybe a Twitter trend to get this campaign going. :D

I don't know, I much prefer having a physical copy. I quote what atamarashi said, "probably because of the sentimentality of owning one".

That said, I wouldn't mind paying for both a physical copy, and also buying a copy through iTunes. It's a bit impractical, but SCANDAL is a band I don't mind paying a bit extra for.

However, one thing is for sure: I'm getting this album!

I think I might get both too

I just want to see if we can get enough people to download it off iTunes so it charts in Australia

I hate FB and I neglect twitter so I will leave that up to other Australian fans......

I live in Japan and they aren't on the iTunes store here either. I think their record company have a disagreement with Apple. So if they're not on the Japanese iTunes store, they probably won't be coming to any other county's iTunes store, unfortunately.

Really? Weird, all of their other albums are on the Australian iTunes store, I just checked but it's really weird how their music isn't available on the Japanese store :S

I have heard that they had internal problems with the Japanese Sony and iTunes, they originally were on Japanese itunes but they got removed so after... but outside of Japan their fine

I know this monstrously failed but I can confirm that Queens are Trumps is available on the Australian iTunes store

And I bought it, first thing in the morning... I remember when I rushed home after school to buy Baby Action Last Year

Haha... yeah, now Queens are Trumps are on itunes. Pretty quick. I thought that it would maybe come a week after the Japanese release date. Hmm. Scandal doesn't really do well in itunes... .wtf. .waaa.

Say, do any of yous know where to get Scandal Cds in the shops, not online?? I've looked everywhere, like JB Hi Fi and I can't find anything. Now, I think I'll end up resorting to buying it in ebay/amazon...

I have never seen a physical copy in a mainstream store like JB Hi-Fi, if you want a physical copy you would have to purchase it online, try cdjapan of play-asia, they are pretty good. Depending on where you live, I don't know about Melbourne but in Sydney there are some places that sell media imported from Asia, so if you can find a store like that in Melbourne, they may have ordered some copies

both in melbourne and sydney.
a month ago i checked and there wasnt any hehe

awww they don't have their first album
As if anyone would pay $63 for QAT

I've always gone the way of eBay. There's a store which has the CD/DVD copies going cheap with a few goodies thrown in. I've got wristbands, iPhone cases etc from them. They have the Budokan DVD with a guitar pick at the moment.

I got QAT from iTunes a few weeks ago, but I much prefer the physical CD/DVD and will get that soon.
