FBI swoops in to protect Guns N Roses

Apparently someone put some songs from an upcoming album on their blog and, as reported here in the LA Times, the FBI arrested him. Probably not the slickest move to register your own domain name and upload pretty sought after songs on there.

"The site received so much traffic after the songs were posted that it crashed"

Guess he wasn't even that prepared.

Makes me wonder why people put their neck out to do this. Ignorance? I'm all for free music, but this just seemed not smart. Hopefully they won't dig through the server logs and start finding IP addresses, etc, and going after the downloaders.
