If you do a search in the music store for Guns N' Roses and then click on the name of the band that is where the page pops up this is what it says in the last few sentences: "Chinese Democracy is inching closer to reality ending more than a decade of waiting and speculation. To paraphrase Julius Caeser- Guns N' Roses came, saw, and conquered, but they still have a lot of conquering left to do."

Looks like they've jazzed up iTunes a bit. Anyway, Chinese Democracy is almost here. After we hear Shackler's Revenge, I reckon everything will start moving along a bit quicker

As many of you know (which the data below shows is the most important factor--the "knowing"), Radiohead released "In Rainbows" online. I think it was only a 12 to 14 song album. We all know, GNR has 40 to 70 songs in the bag. When analyzing the #'s found in the story below, the best way to release an album is online--due to the sharing that happens--the sharing is what makes the bands fanbase grow, and at the end of the day, that is what it's all about monetarily speaking. In fact, the leaks were a huge benefit for the band--the more people that download them, the more people that are into GN'R, the more stories written about them, the more attending shows, etc. (2002 #'s vs. 2006 #'s possibly confirm this, as the leaks reinvigorated the bands status) The excercise alone of downloading a band's songs, and then sharing it with others, increases a bands visibility. People are into habit, and the easier for them to continue to get their music in their habitual way, the more they will download and pay attention to a certain band. The more people into the band, the more there are to visit their website and purchase DVD's, gear, and pay-for-downloads of content.
So take Radioheads' In Rainbows while hyped, and unanimously praised artisticially, it did not have the hype that CD will. Moreover, compound this by the fact that GN'R potentially could release three batches of 15 songs in succession, or 30 or 40 at once, and you have the recipe for major sharing and growth in popularity. Moreover, with the upload feature on Rock Band, you have an additional conduit for revenue and sharing. The model has changed, and Wired Mag has an article, as well as a link to the MCPS-PRS study showing the massive upside for digital release--especially when you can drive users back through your website. I am hoping GN'R is taking note of this, as the a massive digitial release seems to be the best way to get their credibility re-invigorated, and will jump-start tours, upcoming releases, and revenues.

Quote
Chinese Democracy is inching closer towards Reality, ending more then a decade of waiting and speculation. To Paraphraze Julius Ceaser -
Guns N' Roses Came, Saw, and Conquered But they still have alot of conquering left to do.
Chinese democracy will make the best headlines/segways/intros whatever you want to call it,
its such a mythical and fantastic story/buildup..
