p2pnet.net News:- Pink Floyd's Roger Waters is using the Net to promote two new songs.

Streaming versions are on his web page.....http://www.roger-waters.com/

but To Kill The Child and Leaving Beirut won't be available from sites in the real world - that's to say on the p2p networks.

Instead, they're being peddled through various corporate music sites supplied and supported by the Big Four record label cartel.
