It's not hyphenated, so I agree RTF makes more sense as an acronym.

I keep thinking Rich Text Format!

Surely it's "Rewind"?

Don't like the cover at all to RTF

Rewind is one word, when did it become 2 words? Even the LP Cover has not altered the appearance/spelling of it etc

The acronym RTF might be short and simple, but it doesn't look so human to me to stick with abbreviations so much. Just this. I'm not criticising here the use of acronyms, I'm just talking about... styles....

I try to stay as inexpensive as possible. Anything over X amount and there are customs and duty charges. There's a slightly lower price in that VAT is removed.

I'm still not sure what version I want, awful at making decisions...the signed deluxe is tempting but I might just go for the one on Amazon.

That's a good reason! Then no need to think much about it!

If their Facebook page is anything to go by, they've ruined the cover.



I doubt this latest DISGRACE is their fault, though.
