There was a thread on the rwd forum (which I can't find) on a recent issue of DJ Mag. They had done a bit on grime and made all sorts of errors with the facts which people were ripping the piss out of.
I understand why an artist wouldn't want a track to be leaked for the reasons you give above Logan but it seems to be unavoidable no matter how wrong it is. So might as well take the fact that this is going to happen and plan this into the marketing strategy.
I don;t think its a question of whether its right or wrong anymore because you can't stop it. Dizzee's first album got bootlegged and then went and sold 250,000 and I reckoned the bootlegging actually helped him reach those sales figures. Artists have to realise the internet has changed...
Here is the links for the seperate tracks in order I think:

Cheers for the advice. Currently uploading the seperate tracks, will post up links as soon as its done. Everyone who has requested CDs - will get them sent out this week.
I've got a piece of shit 56k modem been trying to upload it but my connection times out after 4 hours and that doesn't seem to be enough time for a 65.7mb file. Any ideas anyone?
For me punk is about just doing what you want and not being "cool". So yeah agree that it goes past Rock n Roll in that sense. I think it is a lot bigger than that as well though. A recognition of something fundamentally wrong with the world.
