LOL... god, I remember the frenzy surrounding the leak. The vibe here was very "If you download this record then you support the turrrrists" kinda thing. In the end, I wonder if any regular here actually did not buy the album?

Basically, what I'm saying is that if OWB leaks, you bet your ass I'm dl'ing it. And then buying at least one copy on release day if not more. It's just how these things work. And I encourage people to not get more emotionally involved than is necessary if it does leak. I'd consider it a reasonable notion to believe that people that would pirate the leak and not buy the album also would pirate it post-release and not buy the album.

Thanks for the leaked tracklisting guys, now I wanna hear snippets you bastards!
