New Wolf and Norther albums available only as MP3s in the US.

Lets relax here a little bit. First, this is not new, labels have been doing this since they've been in existence. CM's reason probably being the market just isn't there in the US after the weak showing for Ravenous. Second, there will always be physical copies available, although they might become more limited in the future. But hey, you can still get vinyl of new releases and that format was about as dead as it could get for a long time. As long as there's a market for it (diehards like myself who prefer a physical copy - hell, I'm 40 and don't even own an mp3 player!) there will be the physical releases. Sometimes you just have to seek out the import. BTW, it's always worked conversely too for our overseas brethren buying imports released ONLY *gasp* in the US.
 
Only Foobar is real.
