Hesitation Leaks: An Unofficial ETS Pool

[OSLIN]

I personally think that it WILL NOT leak. If I'm right, do I win?

Sure. I guess.

[Dethbryte]

August 29th at midnight, though I wouldn't really consider that a leak since it's the official itunes release in some countries apparently.

I wonder if @trent _reznor will "leak" it via stream before someone else does.

[eversonpoe]

honestly, i've never downloaded a leak. i like the anticipation of a firm release date. but i'm also certain that i'm in the minority.

I have the windows open. Isn't that good enough!?

[ManBurning]

Trent will go back in time and leak it on February 14, 1997.

First, he just needs to borrow Marilyn Manson's time machine.

DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO.

Crowd cheers

It will stream before it gets leaked. For the leak, any time after the first 1:01:59 when it does

If Zane Lowe eventually plays all the songs on his show, does that count as the album leaking?

I'll fly to the UK and murder his face if he does.
I don't want my introduction to the album to include his stupid accent during the last 15 seconds of every song minus the 3 ones we've heard.

It doesn't leak. The release day passes. It never comes. Everyone is confused. Eventually, we all die.

...plus, mostly leaks are a good thing. non-diehard-fans won't buy the album if they haven't heard it, and leaks are exposing the material to them beforehand, so if they like the album, they will buy it right when it hits the shelves - ergo, higher chart position right after its premiere! it's actually a great marketing strategy. and if you're a pirate, and you would download it anyway, any leak (or lack of one) won't change your decisions.

TRUFAX.

Not so much these days. Internet is faster for most everybody now and streaming is a much more honest preview than a lossless CD rip. A lot of plays on a stream generates income for the band where as a copy of a (sorry) full album can prevent some of the fans who don't have disposable cash from saving up for it, like we all did before the internet. Giving the stream to someone like Pitchfork or Rolling Stone lowers the money needed for an album's publicity budget since it insures some great press - usually.

Can't rightly avoid it during a day schedule here in Texas...Pretty overrated in August I can tell you that. I've been waiting all day for some NIN and my blackout curtains!

Although I hope it's sooner.

[ComradeCornhole]

2013-8-25, 12:30pm Mountain Standard. Just in time for me to know it leaked but not be able to listen to it because I'll be making preparations for my daughter's birthday party. I won't hear it until at least 11pm. This is exactly the kind of not-catastrophic-but-irritating-as-hell bullshit that life serves up for me ALL THE TIME.

[Skeptikk]

3 hours before the "Australian" release.

[toomanyrifts]

Never. As soon as it hits midnight on Jan 31st, 1999, all the computers are gonna implode.
