Will you download the leak?

[Gilbertk]

I'll admit it. If there's a leak, I won't be able to resist, but of course I'll be buying a copy on the 12th.

 

Edit: Sorry if that first title made it seem like there is already a leak. Didn't mean for it to sound like that

No, 'cuz I'm not that excited about the record. Sure I'm excited but I'm not 17 in 1985 if ya know what I mean. Edited May 20, 2012 by OGr8imL84AD8inF8sBlackSedan

Me too!

 

Although I also considered picking "No because there will not be a leak". I do kind of think that. But if one leaks, I don't expect it to until at the earliest June 8 or 9 or whenever it releases in Australia.

I will be downloading the leak, for sure, but I did already pay for the fan pack.

do bears shit in the woods?

[Union 5-3992]

Actually I'd like to change my vote to, "Listen to it on Youtube if it leaks early, then buy the album".

[NYM86]

Nah. I'm not in that much of a hurry to hear the album...I just bought some other CDs I want to digest first, which will take a few weeks at the least. And by then, the legitimate Clockwork Angels release will be just a few days away. I'm also opposed to downloading music in general, especially for bands I care this much about...

And if you did download it, that would hurt the band? How?

I voted yes, and I've already bought the UK promo pack, and I've got the US CD and the vinyl on order with Amazon.

[ALifeson85]

I already pre-ordered a copy from Amazon.com, so I HAVE paid for mine ...BUT... in the event that it leaks a week or so prior to the official release - YES, i'll download it. I did the exact same thing with Dream Theater's latest album, A Dramatic Turn Of Events.

[Shredder2]

No matter what, I will still buy and support my favorite artists. I downloaded Coldplay's Mylo Xyloto when it leaked and I still bought it on the release day.

[1 of the 7]

Nah. It's coming out soon enough that I can't be bothered with the downloading process (I don't have super-fast connectivity). I realize people will start talking about it, but nothing that could be described will be like hearing it for the first time anyway, so it can only spoil it so much.

[Steely Caress]

I voted no. I have the fan pack on order and will probably buy the cd a few days early from an independent record store in my city.

[ColdFireYYZ]

I think it will leak, and if it does I'll download it. I'm getting the CD and vinyl too.

[CrossedSignals]

Yep. I have no willpower when it comes to these things. I WANT NOW.

[greyfriar]

Don't want to listen to a crappy mp3 copy, so I'll wait. Paid for the fan pack and will buy the vinyl.

[Chicken hawk]

Im waiting along with most others. Well im waiting anyways.

[trenken]

Yeah Ill definitely download it, but Im still buying the album. Not to support the band though. Album sales do almost nothing for the band, that's really more for the record company to pay for the recording of the album. That's how it work. The band makes their money from touring not album sales, and I plan to go see them live. But I just want the insert for the artwork and lyrics.

[savagegrace26]

Why isn't downloading it and not listening to it an option?

[fonzbear2000]

I'll grab a leak for sure. Of course, I'll buy a copy when it comes out.

[nappy2112]

Oh yeah !

 

I'll buy the cd and already have a ticket , then comes a tour shirt , DVD and so on.

[Echoes]

Nope. I've waited this long for the album, I want to experience it properly by eagerly purchasing it in the store on release day and popping it in my stereo system at home

[Lerxster]

I voted "No, because the leak will not fit into my view of audio perfection.", but I would add that I want the cd package with the booklet in front of me when I listen.

 

We're almost at 3 weeks away from launch. I will wait and let my first listen be the hightest of sound quality possible. I did listen to a leak of Malnar before S&A came out, so I'm not above listening to leaks (although I have never downloaded one). It's that I've heard a quarter of this album, and that's good enough for me.

 

And, not that I know anything about leaks but based on what I've read, no one will be hearing it from a leak this month.
