I think if Axl said, guys let it go, it would not have come to this. I think because of this as a protest it will get leaked faster...that's how pirates work.
And I'll be the first to download it, copy it many times and hand it out. I changed my mind today about GnR in general...they are now pro establishment, pro status quo, pro commercialism.
I am not.

Kevin Cogill, 27, of Culver City, who admitted to allowing public access to the songs on the Antiquiet blog, was arrested today on suspicion of violating federal copyright laws.

A man accused of posting nine previously unreleased songs by the rock band Guns N' Roses on a website where they could be accessed by the public was arrested at his home early today on suspicion of violating federal copyright laws, authorities said.
Kevin Cogill, 27, is accused of posting the songs, which were being prepared for commercial release, on the Internet blog Antiquiet in June, according to an arrest affidavit. The site received so much traffic after the songs were posted that it crashed, the affidavit states.
Cogill admitted to posting the songs when he was questioned by an FBI agent, according to the affidavit. He was arrested at his home in Culver City this morning and is expected to appear in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles later today, said Assistant U.S. Atty. Craig Missakian.

My own opinion:
I always supported the band right....but this....no, this changes many things for me.
I will not buy the album if they do not release this guy without any lawsuits. I will download it in that case and copy it for all friends and family.
Come arrest me Axl, you lost a long time supporter and defender of you, right there. We are now criminals for wanting to listen to peeks of the songs..of an album we would have bought anyhow.
Not anymore.

Is that limitless guitar shredding I hear at 3:01? Because it sounds like keyboard it's so fast.
That's Bumble's incoherent wanking on the fretless guitar, which makes it sound that way when playing arpeggios with tapping. But the break before the solo, you know that one strange slow guitar melody is Bucket (2:10-2:15)..rest all Bumble...unfortunately.
Bumble lowers the quality of the song and GnR in general I think. Bucket was something else, his solo on this track was probably much better, Bumble just tried to copy it and add his own thing.
There is a reason why Axl tried for years to get Bucket back, up until the last few weeks before the 2006 shows

my local station talked about hearing SR from an email from a fan....the DJ said that if they plan to use that track as a single then they are in trouble...
Anyone who takes DJs serious is in trouble.
