I think that happened a couple of Oasis albums ago too. Germany or Australia ended up putting it up too early. Don't think the band has anything to gain from it happening, as the 'leak' hasn't resulted in tonnes o press/blog action or anything.

I do see why it would be. ...but if it is, then the label can suck it! What label? There is no label, well.. there is a name of a label "Tape Modern" but its the label Nick and Stephen Duffy created to sell The Devils project. So, its the band calling the shots. so will Stephen Duffy make cash from the new DD album? as half the label is his? or did Nick buy him out?

There's certainly a precedent for this sort of f u c k-up on iTunes. Maybe five years ago the new Cat Power album showed up on iTunes one week before it was meant to. I don't know if it's even possible for Duran Duran to be involved in this. It's not like the band gets to flip a switch on the official release date to put the music out there. Once it's in Apple's hands, I doubt the band has any control beyond delaying the release beforehand. Leaking elsewhere, maybe. But I can't picture a scenario where this could have anything to do with Duran Duran wanting to create a buzz. someone has noticed because it's gone from i-tunes completely now- yesterday morning I could do song preview- last night it has gone altogether

I think it's probably more likely they were just testing the link but didn't account for fans browsing during the night! Some coincidence though, bit like the time I just happened to be checking my email and there was a link to buy tickets for the Kentish Town Forum show in 2003 and got lucky when 250,000 tried for 3000!!! You don't really believe that PR sh*t don't you ? I got that email too and ordered tickets the same night. But a friend of mine was able to buy his ticket the following afternoon !

After reading John's blog yesterday, I'm actually happy I don't have the new songs yet

I'm not asking about having anyone send me any songs, but I was wondering if anyone did get them? I know it was said on DDM someone got Meditteranea, but I didn't see anyone saying they actually got AYNIN. I was curious if they were able to download them.

As glad as I am that I finally get to hear some new songs, I think it's sad that they've leaked because I think the band was doing a pretty good job at creating a bit of a buzz with all the snippets they were leaking and now it's all gone down the drain.
