i know most have adopted the leak or early stream over the traditional tuesday release. i used to get psyched to hear something when it came out, but if i know i'm going to buy it and pretty dang confident i'll like if not love it, i wait for it to come out and get it before hearing it. more and more that meant waiting for the mail and then later waiting for a sale or enough to get free shipping. discussion of a new album was usually obsolete by the time it actually came out. now i chill and listen when i feel like it. the instant gratification piracy culture ruined new music tuesday.
