GN'R has a long history of leaks. In most cases it has probably been illoyal servants (i.e musicians, engineers, label employees) who have decided to leak material to others, but there's also been speculation that the band itself leaked songs to gauge public response.

The biggest leak though, the Village leaks from 2019, came when an unpaid for locker, belonging to Tom Zutaut and containing a bunch of CDs from the Village Recorder sessions, went on auction and ended up in the hands of fans.

As for where people actually get their hands on unreleased music when it starts leaking: usually the music is shared among fans over various file sharing platforms, directly or through platforms like torrents.

i love this subject

where do leaks com from?

from all places that you can imagine!

There is a story about a Rolling Stones "leak" that I just love

The leak consisted of various stages of the "Voodoo Lounge" recording sessions

This leak originated a 11-CD bootleg

Legend goes that the son of a very important person* in the Rolling Stones organization [not an employee, but someone very "high" in the organization] stole the tapes and sold them... for drug money!

Oh fuck I love these stories!
