Alternative Physical Version
Although the single was never released officially on a physical format, a consortium of Feeder's supporters submitted various designs for an alternative to the front cover artwork for the single. The designs were then voted on, with the best one then being submitted to an external company not involved with the band who manufacture digipacks. Each member of the consortium paid a small sum of money to one member of the consortium group, who then contacted and liased with the digipacks manufacturer. The resulting digipacks were therefore empty, with the owner downloading the single and b-sides before burning them onto a CDR to place in the digipack, in the same order as indicated on the reverse.

Famous quotes containing the words alternative, physical and/or version:
“It is a secret from nobody that the famous random event is most likely to arise from those parts of the world where the old adage “There is no alternative to victory” retains a high degree of plausibility.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
“The vast material displacements the machine has made in our physical environment are perhaps in the long run less important than its spiritual contributions to our culture.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
“Truth cannot be defined or tested by agreement with ‘the world’; for not only do truths differ for different worlds but the nature of agreement between a world apart from it is notoriously nebulous. Rather—speaking loosely and without trying to answer either Pilate’s question or Tarski’s—a version is to be taken to be true when it offends no unyielding beliefs and none of its own precepts.”
—Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)
