An album from one of your favorite bands, before it comes out, available for download?



It just angers me to know that so many people will just download this album instead of giving the band the money they deserve.



Yes, I downloaded it, and yes I will buy it when it comes out because it's amazing.



But seriously, the music industry is contributing to it's own downfall by distributing advanced copies of CDs. Who the hell runs this show anyway? A 6 year old?

**** Scheme, what a ******* worthless programming language that I'll be tested on Monday!

the new korn album blows.

Considering the years and years I bought CD's that tipically had 1 good song and 9 filler peices of ****, I dont have a problem downloading the albums first to make sure it's worth the money. The recording industry is a bunch of theives anyway. I fully support independant bands that sell their own music though. Then again they usually offer free samples to check out the albums anyways so you know if it's any good or not.



Once the RIAA stops trying to make itself the lords and masters of all digital media (seroisuly people, all those copyright acts arent just for music), pull their heads out their respective anus's and gives their own artists the respect they deservce, they can just blow my crazy cousin.

The RIAA knows it's dying, it will disappear in the next few years.



But besides that, I don't believe (I know I'm assuming here and we all know what that does) that the general public respects music as I do. I don't think most people will buy music they can get for free, especially if they can get it before it comes out in stores.



And reserve your opinions on the new Korn album until you hear it yourself, don't let other people tell you if it's good or not, only you can make that decision!



Oh and the album is the new TCM CD entitled "Legion of Boom."
