It’s almost reached that stage where you feel like it’s now not worth buying this crap.

Good still outweighs the bad by a ton. I'm hardly rocked to the core that Elton wasn't good for it and he has a team willing to pull this crap. Likewise with Rita Ora, Liam Gallagher and their silly egos, I can't say I'm floored when certain individuals can't be bothered. But the vast majority of artists and their teams do follow through on these. This brand of garbage is the exception to the rule.

Nothing really to do other than to cause a racket online about it. It's been successful with the Bob Dylan case, why shouldn't it succeed with EJ?

I used a forwarder, so I just emailed them and told them to cancel and refund the CD from the bundle and don't bother sending the print. I'll just toss the vinyl on Ebay I guess.
