A string of mysterious websites are being discovered around the internet related to the album. Learn more at the [[Year Zero Research]] page.
 
Some time late April 3rd or April 4th, ''Year Zero'' was made available to listen to through a flash player. The album has also leaked on the Internet around the same date.

==Regarding the leak==On April 1, 2007 a bootleg recording of the Chicago, Illinois listening party of March 18]], 2007 surfaced on several peer-to-peer networks. The quality of the recording is very low and it is apparent that whoever made the recording did not have very good sound capturing equipment, presumably a cellphone. On April 4, 2007 a high-quality leak of the promotional disc supplied to listening parties was also leaked onto peer-to-peer networks. Perhaps to counteract and discourage any piracy of the leak, the entire album was made available for free streaming on the album's official website later that afternoon. Perhaps in another response to the leak, Trent Reznor commissioned Q101 in Chicago to play the entire album on their radio station. It is widely regarded however that Reznor himself was responsible for leaking the album as a result of his unappreciation for RIAA'Year Zeros Cease & Desist warrants issued to various websites that hosted free downloads of the 4 USB "leaks". Reznor'' Researchs own involvement with the leak, however, will always be speculation at best due to his own legal liability. ==See also==
