28-year-old blogger Kevin Cogill pleaded guilty to a copyright violation in a Los Angeles court room yesterday, after admitting to posting nine unreleased Guns N’ Roses tunes on the Internet earlier this year, E! Online reports.

As part of a plea deal to get the charge reduced from a felony to a less serious misdemeanor, Cogill also agreed to help investigators to identify the original source of the leaked songs, which all came from the group’s long-awaited album “Chinese Democracy” (released Nov. 23, 2008).

Cogill faces up to one year in federal prison and a $100,000 fine.
