it's not a light hearted two finger salute to corporatism, its a populist embrace of servility to media spectacle and sony's profit margins ie. the very corporate evil rage denounce in their music. people are, of their own accord reinvigorating the market for profit from music downloading. i find this frankly disturbing, that people should do this voluntarily. it's a sign of how far the average person is from revolutionary militance, and what crap they are willing to enjoy instead. you'd think considering what the military industrial entertainment complex is actually doing to the earth right now people might REALLY be prepared to risk a bullet in the head to change things, rather than just living in the drug oblivion of media fug in order to distract from all the bullets their armies and governments are currently putting in people's heads this christmas. its also i think a way to disavow any unplatable content rage against the machine may have by turning it them into just a piece of entertainment to compete with the x factor.
