I just checked out the media player and I Love the changes! 

Also, the quality of the streams (the last couple ones) has been such a great improvement. Even the nightcap was perfect quality. Thank you guys (and team) for the livestreams and all the work that goes into this site!  

Disappointing news. I’d rather have physical music and also digital on my IPhone. :-(

Awesome updates!! Thank you guys and team for listening to the fans 🙌🏼❤️ 

Although I will say I am super bummed to no longer be receiving the physical CDs 🥺

This is very sad…. 

Will the price stay the same since we won’t be receiving the EP? 

I thought if you signed up for auto renewal it was digital but if not you can renew when you wanted to and choose a physical EP? 🙍🏻‍♀️

I often thought about going digital but it was a hard decision to make. I like collecting but also don’t play CDs anymore. Now with it all digital I can save space

You will still be able to purchase the physical EPs separately if you wish. They will be available in limited quantities, most likely around HDay each year.

This makes me very very very upset!!!! I always prefer having physical cds 🤦🏼‍♀️😫😖😠 so much for that I guess. 

This is super disappointing to be honest. I've always waited for new CDs/EPs to listen to on my commute and really experience the new music. I'm not a fan of digital music and listen to it far less than physical copies due to it not being as accessible. 

Oh good, love that buying the cd will be an option! Super excited for the new media player features as well 😊

I was really always hoping this day would never come. Ugh. 💔

I'm happy for the media player updates! I stream it in my car on my drive to work a lot, and the biggest downside is not being able to control it through my car controls (so I can't skip anything). This is particularly annoying when I want to listen to the Against The World songs because the next thing in the media player that autoplays once ATW finishes is the podcast, and I really don't care to listen to the same episodes I've heard over and over again. Being able to filter to just albums or EPs will fix that, so thanks!

Super bummed about this. Even though I do listen to most music digitally, I still like having a physical cd as well. 

I literally have been waiting for the cd this year because I only played each digital song once. I listen to cds in my car and I work on my phone while driving so if I have it connected to Bluetooth then I can't hear the music because of all of my notifications. I'm extremely disappointed in one song each month and now this. I know most people only bring praise no matter what but I'm real. Yes I love you yes I'm angry. 

I LOVE getting the physical copy of the EP in the mail and the excitement around not knowing exactly when it will show up in my mailbox. So while I’m glad we can still purchase at limited quantities, I don’t see why those who want the physical CD can’t just choose the option when they sign up/renew membership. 

Loved the changes! Please keep with live straming next year as well! 

I was a little bummed about this, but Leigh stated that we can still purchase the physical EP, so yay to that! 🎉 😊

Also just want to add that I’m super excited to hear about the shuffle button in the media player. I literally just talked about wanting that as an option like two days ago! ❤️ 

Instead of taking things away or offering limited quantities, idk why you wouldn't roll out each option at different times to capitalize off of it. Taylor Swift does it all the time. Do I have 4 copies of Folklore for no reason? Yup. Digital is fastest and I wanted it day of. Done. But also wanted a physical copy. Oh a vinyl option? Ok…3rd copy purchased. Now you’re offering signed CDs?! Yes again. 4 copies. 1 person. Dumb but am I mad about it? Nope. 

I really like the changes on the media player and I completely understand that some artists are going completely digital, but I need to say that I'm really upset by this... collecting the physical members CDs is like a memento from my HNet membership that I look forward to every year.

You will still be able to purchase the physical EPs separately if you wish. They will be available in limited quantities, most likely around HDay each year.
So, this means I'll have to pay extra for the cd + international shipping, aside from my membership? Guys c'mon, help a poor fan overseas :( 
The physical membership should continue the way it is and a cheaper digital-only membership could be created for the ones who decide not to have the physical cd. 
Just my two cents, I can't really justify/afford paying the anual membership plus paying extra for the CD + international shipping! 

Will the membership be cheaper then since we will have to buy our own EPs? 

Literally the main reason why I kept my memberhsip was for the yearly physical EP… 

I’m super Sad about no physical EP copy we have to do it separate but that’s OK I’ll make sure I get a physical copy

Will the membership be cheaper then since we will have to buy our own EPs? 

This is what I'm wondering as well.

:(  "You will still be able to purchase the physical EPs separately if you wish. They will be available in limited quantities, most likely around HDay each year"....

Sooo, we will still be paying the $40. for the membership, but if we want a physical CD we will have to pay extra for that too?

Like others that have said, I'm not a fan of going strictly digital, I prefer actual CD's.  :(
