artform again instead of an INDUSTRY. mark, london, Although I don't live in the UK, I understand that Price gave away his new album with a Sunday newspaper. I bought t, and will probably buy the Radiohead one for about 75p from my local street market.
Bill Peter, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia I think what Radiohead is doing is awesome! They are being loyal to their fans yet avoiding other corporate players in the music industry who only care about making a bang from their buck off of some extremely talented artists(i.e.
Radiohead). I went ahead and purchased the discbox, but for those who would like to have an option of purchasing only the digital album version, Radiohead's idea is GREAT! Harps, San Ramon, Ca John you obviously do not know how any of this works.
When a band makes a record they are usually on an advance paid for by the record label this is on contract to provide them with the album for sale. As radiohead were out of their deal I am pretty sure they paid for the studio time etc themselves (although they now own a few anyways).
