I have no desire to listen to Madonna, so I guess I'm not going to suffer any 'great loss'. Even if I wanted to, I could just download it again? That's just too hard, isn't it. -- Hazzah!

 | That's a funny, if ineffectual way around it Instead of being greeted with music when played however, downloaders will be greeted by Madonna herself, asking them "What the f--- do you think you?re doing?" Only Madonna! Hahah. That's just funny. I can imagine some of her fans going, "what the hell!?" when they hear that. It won't work on a large scale but it might deter a few fans from pirating her music. I can only hope so. Although she is a millionaire many times over and doesn't really "need" the income, "fans" should be supporting the artist. Especially the independent, lesser known ones. -- "War Is Peace.

Someone should get that clip, make up a funny website with some flash movie, and reap in the $$ off of that. |

 | Didn't deter me After reading the article, I decided to give Kazaa a try and see for myself how hard it was to download her song.
I did a search for American Life and of course the search found tons of songs. One song of a certain size was found with 23 users sharing the same version. I downloaded it, and voila..the complete song with no skips or profanities from her.
I don't really care for her music (or for herself for that matter) so I deleted it, but I found it pretty funny how I found the song on the first attempt.
I guess if Madonna can't make headlines for her (good) music, she needs to find ways to make headlines by other methods. Almost seems like it is "free advertising" for her to make headlines about how it will be "difficult" to download her new crappy song single. -- Place your hand on a hot stove for a minute and it seems like an hour, sit next to a pretty girl for an hour and it seems like a minute, that's Relativity. -Albert Einstein |

Re: Didn't deter me 1) Its her freaking fans.... When you tell people who buy your over priced music then tell then to go fu*k themselves, personally I would be extremly pissed! I stopped buying Metalica crap. And though I never liked Madonna if I got that little treat I would download every single album she ever made and share it w/ the whole world!!! muahahaha 
My personal opinion on Rich Celeberties against pirating is: If they loose a few thousand record sales (and lose on millions) and still make millions on recordsales, tours, and merchandise they have no reason to complain... All this shows Madonnas greed and also what she really thinks of her fans that made her the rich material whore that she is today.. |

Re: That's a funny, if ineffectual way around it Do you know how much a Madonna concert ticket costs? If I support an artist, I do it buying concert tickets, and there's now way in hell I'm paying $85 dollars for a general admission ticket. |

Re: Didn't deter me Nothing new, this has been done before and it doesn't work. I remember a couple years ago Barenaked Ladies tried that same thing. Except they added their little insults to the file and made it bigger then it was supposed to be. Then it became dead easy to spot the fake file based on file size alone and I actually ran across a site with a whole list of people sharing the fake file. Not too mention with any of these P2P apps, you could probably listen to the file as it downloads and delete it before it's finished downloading if it's fake. This will only work with complete noobs that don't know what they're doing. Otherwise it sounds more like a lame attempt for Madonna to get some media attention because she's become a complete has been. -- "It's a butterfly!" -- kid from the MSN 8 commercial |

| Another Spineless Performer Did anyone notice how she pulled her "controversial" video from release right after Michael Moore was nearly booed off the stage at the Oscars for his diatribe? You may have seen clips of the video, making a mockery of things with dancers dressed in fatigues, Madonna tossing a grenade, and so on.
What a spineless opportunistic a** she is, to produce this garbage and then run for cover when the prevailing attitude of the society is to reject the message (if there was one). God forbid she should lose any fans due to them seeing what she's really all about. -- Time is an abstract concept invented by carbon based life forms to monitor their constant decay.-Thunderclese |

Re: Didn't deter me It also won't work because an mp3 can be downloaded from Kazaa in less than a minute with a good broadband connection. Do a search, and download 10 or 15 different versions, in less than 30 minutes, and keep the mp3 that's not fake. |
