I'm a huge fan also. I don't have every Halo, but I'm definitely getting this one. I believe it's Halo 26?

I havent actually been able to dl the damn thing yet. The servers are being raped. Reznor himself put the first 1/4th of the album on Pirate Bay over here for free:

"Ghosts I is the first part of the 36 track collection Ghosts I-IV. Undoubtedly you'll be able to find the complete collection on the same torrent network you found this file, but if you're interested in the release, we encourage you to check it out at ghosts.nin.com, where the complete Ghosts I-IV is available directly from us in a variety of DRM-free digital formats, including FLAC lossless, for only $5."

wow, I thought him leaking the Closure and Broken movie ISOs at the PirateBay was the biggest thing he ever did, I guess thats not enough. He created the website dedicated to every NIN remix in the world, and they let you download instrumental versions of the songs, but thats still not enough. Now he let us listen to the whole first album of the series for free! Damn.

Trent is just freaken awesome

I've been trying to download for some time now and having trouble.

I'm not a huge fan, but I've always been aware of his work. I had some friends who used to love the guy. I'm looking forward to hearing this. Oh sweet, I'm downloading right now as I'm typing this.

Unfortunately, the Ghosts I-IV site is down for the next few hours for maintenance.

We quietly released this album last night without any warning, and without any press. Because we know how devoted our fans are, we planned for an overwhelming response, and expected heavy traffic. To our surprise, the traffic was more than three times what we anticipated, and has only been getting heavier throughout the day. The response has been absolutely phenomenal, and we couldn't be happier, but our servers have taken a beating, causing numerous problems with the download site. Our developers, who have been working non-stop to combat the surge of traffic, feel that taking the site down for a few hours to fix some crucial issues is the best way to get things running smoothly again. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

While the site is down, you can still purchase the complete Ghosts I-IV here from Amazon's MP3 store for only $5. The MP3s are high quality and DRM-free. You can also order the deluxe and limited edition packages from Artist in Residence.

If you're familiar with BitTorrent, you can download Ghosts I, the first of the four volumes, for free, from our official upload at The Pirate Bay.

If you ordered a download and have not yet been able to retrieve it or have experienced any technical difficulties with the download, your download link will work as soon as the site returns.

Thanks again for the amazing support, and your continuing patience. Watch nin.com for updates during the downtime.

I just grabbed the full album from pirate bay for the time being. I'm sure that doesn't make me a bad person. I'm still eager to grab that FLAC version I paid for when their servers come back.
