Are Target’s Exclusive CD Deals With Taylor Swift An Invitation to Pirate Them?

Target will be the exclusive retailer of Taylor Swift’s deluxe version of her third studio album Speak Now “that features three new music tracks, three remixed music tracks, and 30 minutes of video content,” as well as the deluxe version of Trey Songz’s fourth studio record Passion, Pain & Pleasure “that includes four additional live tracks and 30 minutes of video content,” the company announced via press release. So stick that in your favorite Bittorrent client and smoke it.

Whether it’s at Target or Wal Mart, it’ll be middle-of-the-road mush either way. Taylor Swift = barf music.

Barf music is spot on, which in the modern musical age ranks it as a best-selling work of art.

They’re just advising people to pirate it. And yes, given what Target did — there still should be grudges. Fuck Target.
