This is the most ignorant and condescending thing I've ever heard anyone say. You think that a community based on -- let's be realistic, now -- pirating people's music, is in the *right* because they decided that a particular musician's music should be freely available when that musician himself expressly asked for his stuff to not be uploaded? Adam's music is something very personal to him, and is something truly special to him and the people who have purchased his albums. to have a bunch of ignorant, self-serving, douche monkey fucks just *decide* to give his music away for free right in front of his face... it's disgusting. To what advantage has it been for him now? Now a re-release of a past limited run album, which might have made him some extra cash will likely not, as a simple torrent search will bring it up. a BRAND NEW FUCKING ALBUM which has NOT EVEN BEEN RELEASED is now freely available without his choosing. No record label is going to want to pick that up now, it's done. christ. And then you have the miniscule balls it takes to call him a "silly boy"? Are you fucking kidding me? Have some fucking respect. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
