Revenue Protect: Eric's Blog: Pay As You Like

  • However, stealing the music helped to instigate a life-long passion that also caused me to go to the record shops and buy many of the songs I listened to.
  • All that changes is that instead of advertising the music, the advert is the music. The bands instead make money from gigs and t-shirts, neither one of which can be copied quite so cheaply or easily.

Radiohead's Pay-As-You-Like Experiment Deemed Huge Success, Drove Record CD Sales | Maximum PC

  • Earning a considerable amount more than they did on their previous album with nearly 1.75 million physical albums sold and 3 million copies sold total, Radiohead has earned the right to mark this down as a rousing success.

Artists like Prince and Nine Inch Nails are flouting their labels and either giving music away or telling their fans to steal it. Another blow earlier this week: Radiohead, which is no longer controlled by their label, Capitol Records, put their new digital album on sale on the Internet for whatever price people want to pay for it.
