WTF, are they trying to push download sales instead of boxed versions?

The fair deal would be to offer the boxed version at X-price and instantly get the right to download the game as soon as it is available (so as to save the 7+ days that might take the post to get you the boxed version at home).
Even better...to supply all shops worldwide, so as to have the boxed version available from hour 1.

Still waiting for Amazon.co.uk or Play.com...

My hunch is whoever is making the marketing decisions is from a FPS XBOX background where downloaded content is much more common and acceptable.

They probably do not realize how distinct and different the PC simulation customer base actually is.

Profit for 1c:Maddox on download versions should be higher.
