p2pnet.net news:- With Arctic Monkeys truly behaving like primates, dumping on the fans whose downloads made them rich, Nine Inch Nails has gone the other way.

“As a reward for stealing Year Zero, we’ve prepared the next batch of audio files for you to download,” they post in the NIN site.

Capital g, my violent heart and me, i’m not are available as torrents on, wait for it, The Pirate Bay.

Meanwhile, Arctic Monkeys have given the finger to the fans who made them famous. Instead of saying Thanks! Here’s another taste, “About to leak a copy of the new Arctic Monkeys album on the net?” – asks The Times Online?

“Don’t bother,” it says, “unless you’re willing to risk a knock on the door from the Web Sheriff” and, “The web detectives trace the source of a leak and individuals found to have deliberately spread copyright-protected material receive a personal visit followed by legal threats.”

Nice.

Slashdot it!

Tired of being treated like a criminal? They depend on you, not the other way around. Don’t buy their ‘product’. Do bug your local politicians. Use emails, snail-mail, phone calls, faxes, IM, stop them in the street, blog. And if you’re into organizing, organize petitions, organize demonstrations and then turn up on your local political rep’s doorstep, making sure you’ve contacted your local tv/radio station/newspaper in advance. Don’t just complain. Do something!
