The Itunes rumor...

[Mr.Intensity]

I know it is just a rumor at this point that "Better" will soon become available for download at itunes.. but if it does I believe that leak clearly had something to do with management.

I mean how do we get TWAT and IRS in its entirety, but then only 2:00 of "Better." Sounds like someone is trying to make us drool over the first 2 minutes, so we'll go to itunes immediatly to buy the whole track.

Just my .02 

[HoldenCaulfield]

Yes, my stock in the idea of 'Better' being the first single is very high. I don't really see any other reason why we didn't get all of this song, which is widely considered to be these best of the bunch (in general)...

[-Jack-]

Hm... is there any substance to this rumor?

Remember.. alot of rumors are gonna be popping up soon.. so.. wait for something offical

[Mr.Intensity]

Like I said, it is just a rumor... but it seems plausible that they may release a song on itunes...... just speculating at this point.

[Nytunz]

it sure could be.. i just wonder how long the complete version of better is,
and if it takes any different direction at the end of the song, like a bridge or
something like that.. Maybe a new riff, or guitarsolo in the end!

ahh! i wanna hear it! Release it as a Single! Now ?

[Elrothiel]

However long the rest of Better is, I know its gunna be fuckin' stonking awesome! You can hear the build up happening at the end of the 2.00 mins! I'm betting the end of it is gunna make us all have ear orgasms! Can't wait to hear it!!

[Axl8302]

anything would be good but i want a single i can hold in my hands with a cover.

[Jizzo]

ill be extremely happy to come home to a new gnr single on itunes

[AxlGunner]

Sounds like someone is trying to make us drool over the first 2 minutes, so we'll go to itunes immediatly to buy the whole track.

There is more than 2 minutes of better out there. it wasn't leaked as 2 minutes because of some mysterious conspiracy. the whole thing is out there- the right people need to share it though. that's all...

[badapple81]

I thought it was suss that only 1:30 or whatever it was of Better was put out, while the entire IRS and TWAT were leaked. It was like they just wanted to give us a teaser of a big gun to get us all talking. That's if i came from management that is, which it probably didn't.. just a theory.

[Jizzo]

i cant wait to hear the full version

[badapple81]

Where did this rumour start?

[jameslofton29]

Where did this rumour start?

I was wondering that same thing. The guy says its rumoured, but I never heard that. I think its just his speculation. Unless its a rumour over at Sp1at or blabbermouth or something.

[badapple81]

Thanks..

So it's not a rumour just someones imagination in overdrive 

[elmir]

I reckon the whole album will be launched on iTunes.

Think about it....

Everyone has been saying that March is the release date....unless there is something we don't know about, it is highly unlikely that the CD has been pressed and ready for distribution already in order to make the March deadline if Axl is still negotiating permissions and licences in NY for some song clips (yet again, another rumor).....so.....

...the only way they can make the deadline is to launch it on iTunes, thus avoiding the printing and duplication delays, and then make it available in shops a couple of weeks later when that is ready...

...it could happen.

[badapple81]

I think all albums are available on itunes as well as in stores.

I'm sure Apple will be keen to do something. The tunes they have used on the ipod ads here have become massive hits.

[elmir]

Maybe they launch a limited edition iPod with the album loaded on there?

[kaddisonmoore]

I think all albums are available on itunes as well as in stores.

some bands like zeppelin and ac/dc dont alow them to sell their stuff

[makane]

Everyones just starting their own rumors. "Ye, I think thats how it's gonna go, why don't I just post it for the fools in HTGTH..."

[Evolution]

It makes sense at least.
