According to the file sharing news website TorrentFreak, 100,000 people made copies in the first ten hours of its availability online.

The Chosen One

Angelina and Brad Pitt, have apparently chosen Bono to be the godfather of their twin messiahs. After the the golden twins were hatched, Brangelina spent the week at Bono's place in the South of France. That's where they asked him to be the godfather and he immediately accepted.
A source told The Mirror, "They have been friends for years. Brad is a massive U2 fan and told Bono how much he admired him when they were introduced at a party a few years back. Since then, they've become very close, which Brad is thrilled about. Angelina is inspired by Bono's humanitarian work and gets on with his wife Ali Hewson. Ali's given Angelina some clothes from her ethical clothing range Edun."
