If by any chance you have re-hosted said link before I pulled it, I'd ask you to do the same because they sound pretty dejected about it and I feel like an asshole!
That's what I get for actually leaking things instead of waiting for a release date.

Yeah the EP costs less than £2 to download, no excuse not to get it if you want it that badly.
Fairplay to the band though for coming to you directly (rather than to teh internetz police) and fairplay to you for taking it down!

I too have received the guilt trip emails from labels and in their defense I completely understand why they respond the way they do. The truth is I wouldn't have heard or got into half of the music posted here if it wasn't for the free links. The door swings both ways. Maybe from now on you post a "buy it" (link to label) and "try it" (mediaf!re) and if it's worth it people will do the right thing. These indie labels should stop having dreams of becoming wealthy from pressing obscure albums. Indie record labels are worthless to an up and coming band with the internet, social networks, ect. The only thing they are good for is loaning you money to get started (tour, merch, advertise).
You're not an asshole, just an over zealous fan. Just shrug it off and keep posting.
De_El:
I seriously doubt the kind of labels you're referring to have any illusions that they might become rich off their product. Wanting compensation for your effort is not the same as dreaming of the big bucks. Also, God! Have you met people? What do you mean, "people will do the right thing"?
