Shocked that I can't find a torrent for this yet.  And that the quality is so bad.  Maybe whoever has the advanced copy aren't capable of breaking the copy-protection properly.

Maybe people at other boards like seeing posts riddled with personal attacks and insults, but this isn't the place for it.

As for buzz, he's negative, but his opinion is as valid as any other.  At least he doesn't resort to lame name-calling and personal attacks when he's posting.  Sure, a lot of us are tired of seeing the same debate in every thread, but I don't want this forum turning into a shit-show of insults and attacks.  There are plenty of other sites where you can take that show.  Here, we value educated discussion and friendly debate.  If you don't share those values, you don't have to stick around.

Never heard it or of it.  Upload?

If it's not in Slinger's boots, chances are, it's not real.

Let me explain copyright laws... the work doesn't have to be officially published.  As an extreme example, if you write a shopping list, you own its distribution rights, as you are the creator of the list.  If someone finds it and posts it on the internet, that's copyright infringement.  As long as GNR, UMG, and the feds can prove that the song belongs to GNR (pretty easy to do if it ends up on the album), and can prove that it was written and recorded before Skwerl got his hands on it (which is pretty obvious), then Cogill has no case.
