Fucking awful! You should try to send a cease and desist letter to all places selling it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cease_and_desist)

Might help it get taken down asap. I would offer the "official mp3s" and discuss payment with all of these sites!

The Flashbulb had a problem with this too. 1000's of tracks being sold on iTunes were going to some randomer claiming to be him. (http://torrentfreak.com/pirated-by-itun ... nt-080206/)

Problem is that most of these sites are Russian and there is a legal loophole that will probably stop anything happening from the letters. This is a bit about the site that started all of this bollox! (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AllOfMP3)
