Jay-Z, at the request of Coca-Cola, is among the first to agree to allow such P2P distribution. His "decoy" contains an eight-minute concert outtake clip mixed in with a promotion for Coca-Cola of course.

Well I haven't tried downloading it, but I'm guessing mp3 128 Kbps quality or ACC that even gets somehow ruined more by that CocaCola ad.

Of course, I might be wrong. That article is the only info I have on the subject.
