I recently picked up Izotope's Trash 2 when it was a Musician's Friend Stupid Deal of the Day. This, of course, is something that I simply could've been emailed a serial number, downloaded and installed in minutes if not hours. But no, as part of the "deal" it must be shipped. So far, at 4 days and counting, it has winded it's way from Kansas City, MO to Bensonville, IL and on to LaVergne, TN. All this by way of UPS. However, at LaVergne it has been handed over to the United States Postal Service for it's final (?) leg of the trek all the way to Little Rock, AR. There is, as yet, no guesstimate on it's date of arrival in our fair city. But I'd bet you a dime to a donut that when it gets here it will simply be a box with a serial number inside and nothing more.
As a side note, anything I order from sweetwater which ships free gets here in three days. Sheesh.
