Critics are divided. Is this a genuine leak—a betrayal of the artist by a disgruntled engineer? Or is it the most sophisticated alternate reality game (ARG) in modern music history? Regardless of its legal status, "Electronic-Earth-by-Labrinth.zip" forces us to ask a difficult question: Is an album better when it is perfect, or when it is human?
