Its pretty uncommon that a record, movie or software isnt pirated before release date. Do you think becasue PJ is running thier own ship these days that this has stopped the preverbial leak? Or do you think the leaks of yesteryear were a purposeful PR tactic?

Do you think it even matters any more if something is pirated ahead of time? On day one of release the material is out there for those who choose to take it. Im guessing these guys are making all their money at concerts

What do you think?

    I think the leaks have been genuine, and that nowadays, they are making more money in concerts than record sales... though now they're making money more directly.

    PJ has been promoting themselves more blatantly since Yield, with commercials and all, but I don't think they're "sneaky" promoters though.
    ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you. :)
