Re: [Ellen Allien + Apparat] album
eikman, you're hitting the same point I made but you don't want to admit it. if they didn't want the album leaked, they shouldn't have sent it out. you have to expect your album is going to get leaked when you send it to journalists. it's the nature of the beast at this point. ultimately, it's Ellen Allien and Apparat + Bpitch Control who decided to wait until April to release an album that was finished in December/January. their only line of action now is to just release the album and put a code inside for the extra track to be downloaded when it's done. waiting until April is going to kill the sales of this album. i won't be super excited to see it in the shops for 17-20 dollars but i will pick it up when it hits the used racks for 7-10 dollars. if it were in the shops today or even available on Kompakt-mp3, i'd buy it right now. unfortunately, they wanted to get reviews/hype to maximize their profits. that scheme has backfired and now they're crying foul. you can't have it both ways.
