Just seen a post on the Steps forum suggesting that they are only 300 behind the Manics now

Edit: taking my cue from them - make sure you download any of your digital copies otherwise they don't count!

Could be - but they don't know they have a spy in their midst

So you actually have to download the digital album for it to count? This is more effort than I signed up for.

Apparently! I ended up with two digital copies so downloaded one onto my phone and one onto my work laptop. If I end up getting another one for my iPad and one for my personal laptop then I will have officially gone mad.

I imagine Nicky is on the phone to James/Sean right now trying to convince them to sign more copies of the album and they are telling him to get stuffed

Can anyone confirm the "you have to actually use the download for it to count" thing?

Let's not take our intel from *gags* Steps fans...

I am guessing the bundles don't allow immediate download access and instead provide a code which will be sent postally (at least, I can't find any way of downloading it either on my order receipt email or the web store), so this seems unlikely.

I got an email pretty soon after placing my order informing me that my "music was ready to download". Just used the download link from that email.
