<blockquote>Sooo... let's say we put this thing out, and Interscope will have a big battle, it will be on MTV news because there's this movie condoning rape and dismemberment. [...] Every interview I do for the next five years is going to be what was your social responsibility for putting this out, which I think is none; it's a piece of art. It's a movie I funded, Peter did it, and it's interesting [...] So we just decided to sit on it, which career-wise for Nine Inch Nails was the best thing to do, although we spent a lot of time working on it.</blockquote>

A copy was leaked on VHS in the 1990s and traded for years, resulting in many poor-quality, high-generation copies, and was later ~~encoded~~ digitized and distributed through P2P networks.

~~However, on~~ On December 30, 2006, someone under the name "seed0" leaked a high-quality DVD image on The Pirate Bay; it includes the video for "Help Me I Am In Hell"," which none of the fan-made compilations did, because the first leak had the video dropped out. It was leaked online by the same user who uploaded the leaked DVD version of ''Closure'' , and it was speculated that Reznor himself was the source of the leaks. This was implied by a post on his blog on [[The Spiral]]: ''"12/21/06 : Happy Holidays! This one is a guilt-free download. (shhhh - I didn't say that out loud). If you know what I'm talking about, cool."'' [[Rob Sheridan]] has since confirmed that the ''Closure'' leak was from the NIN camp, thereby confirming that the ''Broken Movie'' leak was as well.[https://www.patreon.com/posts/rob-sheridan-ama-34278427]

In 2013, the ''Broken Movie'' was uploaded to the official NIN Vimeo account, but was promptly removed by Vimeo. It is currently available to download from archive.org.[https://archive.org/details/NineInchNails-Broken]
