“Our new years wish is more music less bull.”
Why would you want a NIN album every year? Or from any other artists for that matter.
In between albums artists who have some sort of leverage in the industry can say whatever they want to.

“And lastly, trust your ear. The audio quality on pirated cds is hugely atrocious.”
