Like an angry mafia boss, record label SyCo is prepared to hunt down and hopefully cut the zits off of the faces of the hackers who leaked a single by Justin Timberlake and Leona Lewis. Reuters reports:
The song, "Don't Let Me Down," is being considered as the first single release from the X Factor winner's next album, according to the Sun newspaper.
"IFPI is working with SyCo and law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and Europe to trace the individuals who stole the Leona Lewis/Justin Timberlake track," said Jeremy Banks, head of IFPI's Internet Anti-Piracy Unit.
"The police investigation is ongoing," he said in a statement. "Such pre-release leaks, however they are sourced, are highly damaging to our members who invest considerable budgets in marketing and promoting music ahead of release."

My suggestion is to either check Gamestop, the acne medication section at Giant Eagle, or every parents' basement in the country. The hackers will turn up for sure.
