I ordered 15 CDs the day of the Breezy launch, and I still haven't received mine. I am also in the North East area.
Although, many have received their's.

if you download it via bittorrent then you can't get corrupted data from the download (it is checked by your bittorrent program and if its corrupt, its re-downloaded), as long as you do a nice slow burn using your cd writer it should be absolutly perfect.

you could still keep your large order (as long as they are actually going to goto people and not just sit on your desk ;)) and download a copy just for you.
