New form of copy protection :D

Little known (I guess) European band - Edguy (Touring in the US in August)
Press release:
On September 5th a new EP and a DVD-Special will be released simultaneously, and even though they have the same title (?Superheroes? and ?Superheroes ? Heroic DVD edition!) they?re gonna differ from each other totally.

The CD ?Superheroes? will contain 5 brand new songs plus a bonus track. Tobias Sammet says, ?One of the tracks is a bombastic uptempo epic that?s reminiscent of a mixture of heavy Queen, Richard Wagner & Avantasia. So it was a MUST to ask Michael Kiske to do some guest vocals. To me music is about goose bumps, and I had a lot when listening to Michi! To make it fair we have decided that the CD shall be out in stores for the price of a CD single only! So make sure you persuade your friends that they buy it and don?t copy it, maybe quality and value for money could be a promising kind of ?copy-protection?!
 
The world is changing. Like what vigra did to porn. DL'ing is making musicans be 'touring' musicans making their money off of live shows. True fans will buy the cd anyway for the higher quaility. DL'ing muzak is the best way to get a taste, cause we all know mtv dont play music anymore
 
Good. I hate it when the industry spends millions of developing easily defeatable "copy protection" and passes the cost onto the paying consumers.

Quality and value on a mainstream CD, that will be the day

True, this isn't mainstream stuff, and nor is it RIAA signed (since it's European, probably a minor-ish label).
Maybe the RIAA will take note though, but I doubt it.
