The U2 album ‘No Line on the Horizon’ scheduled to be released on March 3rd. has leaked on the internet.

“Universal Australia, the Australian arm of Universal Music Group, began selling No Line on the Horizon as digital downloads for two hours before the tracks were pulled.” (Forbes)

A spokesman from Universal said that he was not aware of the leak, and calls to Interscope, the label that put out the record, were not returned.

“U2 either sees this as a colossal blunder–or a marketing ploy to get fans talking beforehand.”

Until a few years ago, the Grammy Awards helped winners sell lots of records in the following week, but today, the spikes of album sales are much lower. For instance, award winners such as Robert Plant and Alison Kraus saw sales of 77,000 the following week compared to Norah Jones’s album “Come Away With Me” which moved 621,000 in 2003.

“The audience for the Grammys has been steadily decreasing over the last two decades; as recently as 2004 the show attracted 26.3 million viewers, according to Nielsen.” (The New York Times)

Ironically, Taylor Swift who wasn’t nominated for any awards cleaned house this week selling 92,000 copies of her latest album ‘Fearless’.
