Emergency
 

This person leaked the complete album on youtube. The quality is terrible, but still... Take a minute to report him/her:

http://www.youtube.com/user/raincaster21

I just flagged and reported

Do you think the reason the album is being streamed on Rolling Stones website is because they knew some butthole would leak it?

probably. more than likely they were preempting the european release.

raincaster left me a message for reporting him

Why would you report me...thats ****ed up......did u ever wonder HOW i got this...Stevie's publicist has something to do with this ok...stay out of it...thus the reason youtube let me upload it at all. Dont bother.....

His message is a bunch of BS, idiot

Haha exactly!

If Stevie and her people had anything to do with it, the songs would be posted on HER official YouTube channel.

quite curious. Did you send a note letting him/her know you were reporting or did youtube provide him/her with that information?

AND they wouldn't be such rotten quality. Big, big lies.

yeah, I wrote a message to him, I wanted to let him know so he would take it down!!!! That is the point of me reporting him

not necessarily. sometimes artists "leak" their stuff anonymously to create hype.

but if he had permission from stevie's publicist and youtube he wouldn't be getting upset over being flagged.

Like Stevie says 'Sometimes it's a Bitch"...

Sometimes (more than not) people are morons..:rolleyes:

Whoa what a lie ! :mad:

I tried to flag as well but i dont know if it worked ...

While I agree that these should be taken down, let me ask you this:

If the album hadn't leaked anywhere yet, would everyone still be in a fuss? :shrug:

People know that stevie has to compete with people who are almost 40 years youonger, she is going to have a hard enough time selling this album eventhough it truly deserves to be multi-platinum.

the rolling stone stream will go down, but this stuff stays up and will affect sales

no ,they do this all the time ,, especially if her pr is still being handled by that woman who did Madonna no one's going to down load these crappy versions

It's not good quality and the album is being streamed on RS, so why would they give it to him to leak, he's lying

That's bull****! By the quality of the sound I would say that he recorded the album from the RS stream.

Bingo.

Stevie and her people pride themselves on the quality of her work.

If they wanted it to "leak" and spread fast, then they would have handed it off to someone with more than 30 subscribers on YouTube :rolleyes:

Plus, if they wanted to create a buzz, they would have leaked demos/outtakes or snippets of songs.

I'm going to twitter Dave, maybe he can do something about it

I think at this point it's out of Dave's control. Nor would he particularly care, I don't think.

he is in contact with people who can help, the big wigs

curious again. hasnt there been some videos, such as the sneek peek from dave and the secret love video, that individuals captured and then placed on youtube unofficially? and was not the secretlove mp3 that was released early as a download with advance purchase placed into video format for placement on youtube?

i find your use of logic offensive. :lol:

Stevie Nicks' youtube account is subscribed to whoever this guy is...

Never mind, he's subscribed to Stevie.
Embarrassing :)

No, those are his subscriptions - meaning people that user subscribes to, not the other way around.

Edit: It's an easy mistake!

You guys are so over reacting.

Honestly everyone album leaks nowdays. I'll probably get yelled at, but it's the simple truth. To say that this is going to lose her album sales is to say that every artist with music on Youtube (which is pretty much every artists) is losing a huge amount of sales.

I mean, is it perferable? No. But it's pointless to get this upset imo. But maybe that's just me.

I was too slow for you. :laugh:

That's why i'm not getting upset about it, because:

A. YouTube doesn't allow you to (easily) download songs to your computer
B. This person has 30 subscribers! Oh, the humanity! :laugh:

:lol: me too.

As a musician friend recently stated when someone ripd music to put to video montage "YouTube is the intellectual property wild west and chances are they are just big fans of the music."

There is no way the stream would NOT be rippd for upload, sooner or later, crappy audio or HQ. :shrug:

No, it's not just you.

I've never been around such a large group of drama queens on the internet.:D

:laugh: The forum of any video game is far worse than any Stevie fans could ever aspire to be!

tell me about it, I'm a World of Warcraft fanatic, I play a warlock :)

there's HQ version on you tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZifu4hFKiU

These are ripped from a CD. :distress: Couldn't they wait ONE WEEK after the album was out? And I know this beyonceshusband guy from youtube. He's been uploading Stevie videos for a long time, and whenever some of his videos are taken down, he reuploads them again. He is obviously a fan, so why does he do this!? Maybe somebody should try to contact him.

I like watching Stevie videos on Youtube.:shrug:

It's a good resource imo.

Me too. I like watching everything on youtube, but this is really not the right time. It could hurt her sales, which could hurt her ego, which could make her stop recording. I mean, we were waiting 10 years for a new album, and I am sure that the low sales of TISL and SYW had much to do with it. She is almost 63. She is not going to be able to do this much longer. Fans are buying multiple copies of IYD, and somebody who obviously is a fan is doing the opposite.

Dave's response:


@DaveStewart
DaveStewart
@jondalar41 that's a pain

Well the problem wasn't that they didn't sell well, the problem is that she was tired from touring and her label told her it was pointless right? I remember her saying if she hadn't been so tired she would have fought back harder.

And honestly....most of her fans have bought multiple copies. There's nothing saying that this person hasn't either right? And also, exposure on Youtube could be good for getting people who don't know Stevie to listen to this album, which could equal new fans and more sales for Stevie. It could be a good thing.
