I feel sick. Im seeing so much of "poor Brad, but this is the only way to Im going to hear these songs, fcuk the Estate " and oh wow, finally we have this song and that song, its crappy that the laptop was stolen but at least we get the songs now"
Im seeing websites openly posted where the leaks are, Im seeing Twitter names of people who are leaking the songs. This is just so disgusting.
It really makes me ashamed of being part of the community.

The damage done here is immense. I can't believe some "fans" are cheering this on. And the person who stole it and is now leaking all the material needs to be put in jail and I definitely hope he will.

I can't say I'm surprised a lot of fans are OK with this since the precedence was set years ago with the Sony server issue. It simply encouraged a lot of fans to feel entitled to all the material irrespective of how they acquired it. Then you have the question of how people like Steve got his hands on material. For example, Victory Tour Toronto was stolen from within JB's home. Theft of MJ material has been going on for a long time and certainly used by podcasts to benefit themselves. So, even MJ Cast's tweet in other thread rings very hollow. It's hypocrisy. Personally, I've long had a policy of not listening to leaks, so whack them all on future projects and I'm good!

I mean his name etc has been posted everywhere so it's likely he'll get caught soon. Pretty ridiculous thing to do.

Everyone has their own opinions about Brad. i believe he has a good heart. i don't know the guy personally only from his posts. but for Michael to hired and work with him for a decade. he seems like a good guy.
whatever how you feel about Brad it still wasn't right to steal from him. he pretty much does these sessions to get by and i also think he do it out of the good of it too.
I don't think Brad or the Estate have anything to do with each other. maybe people can try to get the estate involve but i doubt that's gonna do anything.

I don't know how this guy is still free leaking absolutely everything from that laptop when they know who it is. Also the Estate doesn't seem too proactive in handling these YouTube uploads. SMH. The whole thing makes me sick. I hate these people who are doing this out of some narcissistic fantasy of them being the Robin Hood of the MJ fandom.

Well now I know what I am going to do with all the personal photos and video footage I have of Michael. Sometime in the future it will all be burned and destroyed.

Seems extreme to me. Why not create some kind of fan oral history or something with it all? I have shared my stories online, I have a website where I have written up a lot of my trips I have just never shared any photos or video footage online. I also helped Talitha with her book and I am mentioned in it as I went on some Michael trips with her. It seems that the written word is not valued in the fan community, only the songs and photos. But this stealing of Brads lap top has shown me that people dont deserve to have anything. Its all about one up man ship, feeling entitled to have everything just because it exists. Well no one will have my photos and footage.

I find it funny how people are complaining about Brad laptop being stolen but still uploading and listening to leaks. i'm sorry but you can't have it two ways. this gonna to divide the community. You can be disgusted by someone stealing someone's laptop and external HD. You can listen to leaks if you want. The only thing that would divide anyone is the dreaded moral high horse that appears every so often.

I was against the Invincible leaks in 2001, I didnt listen to any and the first time I heard the album was at the official Sony / MJNI listening party in London.
I was against the Xscape leak and never owned it
I was against the Sony hack and never listened to any of those leaks.
Leaking is stealing and due to the hypocrisy in the community, its lead from Stewart Brawley all those years ago stealing studio audio to now someone actually stealing Brads laptop. This disaster is 20 years in the making. Over the years the moral and ethical question has been ignored and people have become more and more entitled to have something just because it exists.
