Change in presales?

[Malahide]

U2songs.com today releases the message underneath. If I understand well there will apparently be a change for the presales. 

This worries me. The presales for a tour worked perfectly until now. Has U2.com more information about this?

"From the FNAC site...

When pre ordering the album you will later get a presale code for two tickets. These will be distributed the day of the presales (FNAC site says between January 1 and March 30) and it says that U2.Com members will have a chance to use their codes first.

This is a European chain, so the dates mentioned her probably refer to the European onsale dates and not the North American ones (which we are told will happen earlier.)

Looks like entry into the presales could be quite different this time out. Thanks to U2start.com and U2Valencia for their information about these offers."

ps: Fnac is a large French retail chain that sells amongst others cds, books and electronic products.

we'll get an inkling in about an hour I guess.   I'm sure the boards will be busy with clarifications etc after the announcement.

Does the account info page show the 'innocence' or 'experience' group option yet?

I don't see it on my page.  Or am I just dense/blind and not seeing it?

not on mine yet either.  I'm guessing that pages haven't been updated yet?

So, we have to renew our subscription even though it doesn't expire in a few months?

If you want presales, yes.

Ugh this is bad news. None of these SMS presale codes ever end up going through to my phone. I am confused...If you pre-order the album do you get a pre-sale code (as @Malahide said) or don't you?
