Strung Out EP Stolen!

I recieved some mail from the official Strung Out page regarding the theft of their new EP, The Element of Sonic Defiance. It has also been MP3-ed and released through the FTP and Napster world. Of course, Strung Out and Fat are suitably pissed and are trying to legally strong arm the sites. I'm not encouraging or even justifying the behaviour, theft is theft and it's wrong, but this is going to be a futile endeavour. As seen in many other cases (most notably the recent Linux DVD CSS crack) once something is out on the Internet, it's next to impossible to remove it. I say, they cut their losses and release the EP with some extra something or other to encourage people to buy it.
