Gedneil Alpeart Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 The past two Rush albums saw full album leaks ahead of the release date. Many downloaded it, while some resisted until the actual day of release.....kudos to those who had that will power! Now for those who say they absolutely refuse to hear leaks before the release, what if in the future, not likely for CA, that the album leaked and close to 100 percent consensus of Rush fans on all forums ( yeah, I know unlikely....) said that the album was as good or better than MP, PeW, and HEM. Everyone was raving to no end........many saying the best Rush ever.... Would you still hold out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alchemical Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I'd give in and download it though I'd certainly buy it on release date as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furie Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I've never downloaded a Rush Album and i never will. The on;y Rush i've gotten off the internet was Caravan/BU2B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarkus406 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 If it leaks you bet your sweet aspercreme I'm downloading it. No skin off my nose, I've already purchased the vinyl and I'm buying the CD the second it's released anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Couldn't this have been posted in the Album Leak thread, which as of right now is four threads below this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionDetector Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I have no problem waiting. It's what I've always done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush Cocky Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 First of all, I don't search for the album. Except on Best Buy's shelf on June 12th, I mean. Does no one fear their computer contracting a virus by doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordgalaxy Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I'll wait for a hard copy. It's not about will power it's about legalities and the worry of a virus, as mentioned previously. Even though you plan to buy a cd or LP, the band would probably appreciate you not downloading their music from a torrent or other inappropriate source. Then again the band probably appreciates people following the rules and not taking pictures at shows but rules don't apply to real fans, right?

trenken Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) I will download the leak when it comes, and also purchase, although the reason for buying is not to support the band. Buying albums primarily supports the record company, the band makes next to no money off of sales since they dont even sell a lot of albums. Their payday comes from touring, and I support them that way. I would buy it for the insert because Hugh always does a great job with that, and it's nice to be able to read the lyrics.

Jaminbenb Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 If it's out there I'll download it, I already have it ordered, but if I can get a copy sooner, why not? I had a contact that worked for another band (on the same label) years back that got me a copy of a few albums early, in one case a month before it was released (I also got a video of A Show of Hands almost two months before it went on sale) Rush is a band that no matter what, I will buy a copy of the album, no if's, ands, or buts !
