I think this is less a case of Ryan Adams dissing his fans and more about mega-music -machine Universal Music Group's continuing assault on fair use.

True--though probably a bit of both.

um leaking (stealing and then releasing them free) tracks is not fair use.

though, i don't agree with going after the fans like this, it's simply not fair use.

it's a a bad move, but we're talking about ryan adams and UMG. so is it really surprising? no.

all in all nothing to see here. just giving a prick musician and UMG some probably well appreciated press time.

Ryan Adams, Bryan Adams, what's the diff?
