Before everyone gets all pissed at nothing/Interscope, think about it for a minute. Nothing/Interscope can't file anything in court to stop an import record from being sold here, so thier "import ban" has to be in full willing cooperation with warp, meaning they agree not to sell it to distributors who will ship it to the US in thier contract to license the album to nothing/Interscope. So before anyone makes any short-sighted complaints about nothing/Interscope, make sure you get equally pissed at your buddies Autechre and Warp, because they are just as guilty. Besides, I can't imagine some little "import ban" stopping a bunch of sweaty creepers from getting ahold of this album. It'll just make it that much more of a trophy piece.
