Ozzy Osbourne has lashed out at illegal downloaders, blaming them for the poor sales of his new album Black Rain. The heavy rock icon claims he is "suffering terribly" from the effects of internet piracy, and his financial woes are such that he has been forced to perform 90 concerts in an effort to recoup his losses.

| The (estimated) first week sales of Ozzy's SCREAM look to be less than half of the opening week sales for BLACK RAIN. Dare I hope to look forward to another rant from Sharon Osbourne blaming downloaders for an Ozzy album failure? (from Blabbermouth) According to Hits Daily Double, the companion web site of music industry tip sheet HITS, OZZY OSBOURNE's new album, "Scream", is on track — based on one-day sales reports — to sell between 65,000 and 70,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release. Osbourne's last album, "Black Rain", opened with 152,000 units back in May 2007 to debut at No. 3 on The Billboard 200 chart. That number was in line with the 153,000 first-week tally registered by 2001's "Down to Earth", which entered the Billboard chart at No. 4. _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"
