WITHOUT PREJUDICE

Dear Gooses Ganders Bloggers,

Kindly remove the unreleased WHITE STRIPES links (including links to rips of "Rag and Bone") from your site immediately, failing which - regrettably - a DMCA notification shall be forwarded to the site and take-down action shall follow : naturally, however, we hope that this shall not prove to be necessary.

As you will know by now, traffic on this (unreleased) album is being monitored and removed ... .. and not just by Web Sheriff, but also by Warners and their attorneys so, if you have to indulge in this activity (which Jack and Meg would rather you didn't), then do it off-line / do not 'broadcast' it. Otherwise your details will be harvested and you may be hearing from Warners and / or the RIAA.

On behalf of the artist’s label, we do appreciate that - of course - you are a fans of / are promoting THE WHITE STRIPES but, by the same token, you must also appreciate that, by posting a pirate copy of the album or tracks from the album pre-release (or linking to pirate copies), you are potentially causing considerable inconvenience and we are sure that you would not want to be personally responsible (or liable) for all of the resulting damage.

Thank you for respecting the artist's and label's wishes and, if you want good quality, non-pirated preview tracks, NME magazine in conjunction with XL Recordings are offering "Icky Thump" (the single) and "Rag and Bone" on coloured vinyl with today's issue on NME - which, doubtless, it where someone has ripped this from !! If you want these tracks before release, simply buy / get hold of a copy of NME, but do not take it upon yourselves to then put these tracks into unauthorised, digital distribution ... .. not only is this not reciprocating the gesture of trust inherent in giving these vinyl, collectors' items to fans ahead of release, but you're also highly likely to land yourselves in trouble further down the line when other 'parties' take-over the role of rights enforcement (with very different methods).

Whilst writing, we'd add - once again - that we're not at all against free music but, at the end of the day, it should be (and is) the artist's decision as to whether or not they effectively allow the unauthorised distribution of their album on-line before release, as it's THEIR MUSIC !! For the avoidance of doubt, the recent Q101 broadcast was NOT authorised (so there are no double standards applying here).

As you will appreciate, this e-mail - containing, as it does, a position that is potentially prejudicial to our clients’ open / formal position - is written on a without prejudice basis and, as such, all of our clients’ accumulated, worldwide rights remain strictly reserved : please excuse this required formality.

With Thanks & Regards,

WEB SHERIFF
