Title: 60% of radiohead fans opt to pay $0 for new album

smart move i think. goes to show how much bs people think record prices are today. plus real bands make money off tours, not record sales. in fact, radiohead probably made more money doing this than shelling out most of the profits to a major record label

I wonder if more artists will do what Radiohead did. Pretty interesting study.

a lot of bands put their music up online for download, radiohead is just probably the first to release an entire album off their label for free

I would rather fork over $10 to get a cd album than downloading songs in lossless format over the internet

Even though I probably couldn't tell much of the difference, it just feels like I am missing out if I have a song below lossless quality

Same. I'm extremely picky about sound quality.
