They didn't release any hard copies as far as I'm aware. Only in the form of promos.

Someone posted a photo on this forum of the CD single in his/her house. So, maybe it's on Amazon or something.

The age of the internet happened; they're not needed for promotion, the only people who buy them are die-hard fans. I guess the label did a cost-benefit analysis and figured out that the costs of printing a physical single would outweigh any profits accumulated from their sales.

Barely anyone does CD singles anymore. They end up being a waste of money, since most people download when they want single songs.

And that's very very sad. Alanis has two songs only released on line and I hate not having a CD. It annoys the hell out of me that from now on, we will not be able to collect CDs anymore.

Yep, it is. Though it can be very usefull and a lot easier, it's sad. It's not the same as in the 90's, heh. But, things change.

I'm 99% sure that's a radio-promo; it gets handed out to various media personal. Not a single.
