Congrats on your bingo! XD I wish I could say the same, but at least there's still a month...
The bitching about leaks drives me nuts, it really does. I'm not a fan of either side of the argument - yes, we shouldn't be leaking the album before the release date, and if you have the funds to buy a copy you should, but (and this is a big but), I first found out about the band through a download, and then watching ripped vids on youtube, and I'm sure a lot of other people found out about them the same way. Isn't it hypocritical to then rail at other fans about how they shouldn't be doing the same? There will always be people that refuse to pay, but won't a good number of new fans then go on to support the band? It's the same damn drama every time we get a new album, and I'm sick of it. *sigh* On the plus side, Dogma rocks. I can't wait for my copy to show up!
