Guns N' Roses Chinese Democracy Leak Now Streaming Online, Yes It Really Is

06/18/2008
.
(antiMusic) The leak that was reported on in this story was plugged by Axl's lawyers. We'll have an updated story about this soon, but since this story is now out of date we removed it, Plus Axl's lawyers had a fit, so as courtesy we also removed the link to the website that provided us with the original story, even though reporting on this leak is well within our First Amendment rights). [we did not link to any copyrighted files, nor would we]

[here is the updated article text] On Wednesday, a website streamed what they reported as nine "finished" tracks from Guns N' Roses allegedly forthcoming album "Chinese Democracy". Which they deemed well worth the wait.

Axl's lawyers quickly sprung into action and the website removed the streams of the tracks but the reaction from the few fans that actually heard the songs was mostly positive with a couple of Naysayers.

We originally published some of the text of the article from that website (which was submitted to us by the author.) However, we got a love letter from Axl's lawyers claiming that reporting about the leak was somehow "broadcasting" his copyrighted material. So much for the First Amendment? Had we linked directly to the files or actually posted them on our servers that would have been one thing, but simply reporting about a leak is another thing entirely. But as a courtesy we did remove that article and we won't mention the site's name. Now release the damn CD already, so we can buy it!

Interestingly enough, Idolator also reported about this leak. What makes that interesting is that they were recently acquired by a company that Axl's label invested in. Wonder if they got a love letter from Axl's lawyers too?
