Poetic Justice

U2′s upcoming album, due to be released on March 3rd, has already been leaked all over the internet after a mistake by Universal’s Australians branch.

U2 is a staunchly anti-piracy and pro-DRM group that advocates greater controls to ban individuals that download pirated material, and have accused ISPs that continue to ignore copyright theft of being facilitators themselves.

You can now download it as DRM-free 320kbps MP3s, although why you would want to listen to their dribble is another matter.
