That's weird - I'd SWEAR I bought WatS at a record store in the U.S. (after buying the MP3s online through Amazon).

The WATS album was sold in the States. For the last two Hip albums the U.S. release date was 2-4 weeks after the Canadian release date. Ordering through maplemusic.com is the best way to get the new Hip CD in the U.S. without crossing the international border.

If you order through Maple Music, they will ship the CD to any address on the Canadian release date. If you live in Canada and are close to Ontario, you will receive your CD in a couple of days. The farther away from Ontario, the longer it takes to get to you.

International mail from Canada to the U.S. can take up to 14 days. You will receive the Hip CD before the U.S. release date, but well after the Canadian release date. If you absolutely must have the new Hip album on the Canadian release date and you live in a U.S. border town, you cross the border and purchase it as I have in the past. (Windsor/Detroit).
