Label moves up Spears’ CD release

Jive Records bumped up the release date for Britney Spears’ latest album “blackout.” The reason? You guessed it – illegal downloads. The disc will now drop on Oct. 30 instead of Nov. 13 as originally planned.

In a statement, Jive told the AP it is “doing everything possible to prevent and avoid any further illegal distribution of songs,” including the leaking of “unfinished material and demos represented as completed legitimate songs” to the Internet.”

Seems kinda like saying “yeah, they robbed our mini-mart, but they only got the stale donuts.”

  2. I’m betting it has more to do with the publicity Brit keeps getting and the fact that her single is #1.
