According to my various sources, pirates of Thriller 25 have been all around Asia, including Malaysia and maybe China!

Some of the pirates even include Got the Hots! a month before it's actually released in Japan!!

I don't know how they did it. its horrible.


here are some photos of pirates from Malaysia!!

I had a felling something like this was about to happen.Just like with the remixes... :(
 
Re: Pirates all around Asia

I don't know if it is a good thing or bad thing, the more popular the singer is, the more pirates you'll see out there.

But I seriously doubt the quality of the music.

It's expected, Michael is a high profile superstar.

And who are your 'various sources'?

^I'm living in Malaysia, and Yeah My mum and my brother saw Thriller 25 all over night markets here. They even had posters!! My brother wanted to just grab the posters and run. :lol: There are places where some guys would come up to you and ask you if you want to buy Thriller 25 (and other CD's), and he'll show you the CD. :lol: And yeah they had got the hots on it. (Some CD's had Got the Hots, some didn't. Weird cause they are all pirated anyway. They are usually all the same) But my brother didn't buy it though, I told him just wait for the actually release, the quality is probably crap anyways. But I don't know, maybe I'll have a listen. :p

Stupid. But every cd is copied, that's simply just the music industry today.

People download and buy cheap copies!!

If you wan't good music PAY for it !!
 
Re: Pirates all around Asia

Im not surprised. I remember thieves stealing thousands of copies of Dangerous before it was released.
 
u will never stop this...i actually like the covers they made though (even if they didnt use thriller era pics)
 
"Got the Hots" has also been leaked to at least one private sharing network, though I have not downloaded the contents to actually verify whether or not it is the real song or just another song renamed. From what I've observed it appears legit, and is included with all the other Thriller 25 tracks.

thats unfortunate because asia is his most loyal fanbase in general. why do people do this? why steal and pirate? get a real job.
 
My brother saw another kind. Its a different copy(With a different cover and everything) and Got the hots was in there. Who did you get the pictures from?
 
A fan in Maylasia said the pirate CD is just made of the the leaked materials, including the previous leaked old version of FOR ALL TIME

A malaysian fan
 
Hm, I don't see "Got The Hots" on there.


And yes, those bootlegs are no real CD rips, they have just the old version of "For All Time" on it and the remixes are only in Stream-Quality of 64kbit/s.
NOTHING NOBODY COULD ALREADY HAVE SINCE MID DECEMBER 2007!

Really? Strange. My brother saw one (with the original classic cover) and Got the hots was included. Maybe just the name but the song is totally different. :lol:
 
it won't effect the sales much I think because the ones who actually buy real cd's don't buy pirates just like we wouldn't. And the ones buying pirates don't bother to buy the real deal so yeah..... pirates have been around since forever and there's nothing one could do to stop it... real sad though.

You know what is even worse than those pirated cd's? People who call themselves FANS, fans who post on forums like this, and don't buy original CD's but just download them illigally. Believe me, there are A LOT of people like this.
 
they are loosers :lol: they put some Bad era photos into the booklet haha
 
of corse this was going to happen.. I just hope it's at minimal as possible
 
And has Michael been informed about this to let his legal team look into it? Someone should email Bain. The quality of these isnt CD quality and For All Time is the original demo version NOT the new version with new vocals. Also a few of those tracks arent even on the final tracklisting.
 
I can assure you that "Got The Hots" has not been leaked yet.

And all those Chinese bootlegs have the web-rips of the remixes in poor quality, so actually nothing to worry. ;)
