Billy Corgan said the hacker's collection of stolen music was 'shocking' as Smashing Pumpkins frontman awaits the 'end result' of the FBI's investigation.

Sounds like a freemason shakedown based on his stage attire.

"The world is a vampire!"

What a dumbass. People that want to download his music will still do it.

...why they'd want to is beyond me, though.

Aren't MP3s of songs like several megabytes?

Mp3s are compressed, so they can be made to fit on a floppy if you want. And maybe it's a short song.

I don't understand how he ever got on the radio with that nasal screech of his.

Oh I love em as far as washed up pop stars go. Least offensive. They went and did the only thing people ever want these sorts of bands to do: Tour and play their old music.

Did you see where he speaks about coming face to face with a jewish demon shapeshifter?

He's told that story several times and schizos think it was Courtney Love.

I don't think it was her. I think it was a higher up in the music biz.
