There is a lot of talk about the release of the new album Radiohead. The reasons are two: they have new material – bears the name In Rainbows – and the second, that you can download the album from their website and make the donation that you see fit for the album. O sea, you set the price.
Radiohead which is formed by Thom Yorke (cantante), Jonny Greenwood (guitar), Ed O'Brien (guitar and choir), Colin Greenwood (low) the Phil Selway (battery) announced in 2006 that they would never work with any record label again.
Radiohead's seventh album is launched and they do it in style. From your website Radiohead You can make the donation and download the album or pre-reserve the album with extra material for a very cheap price. 58 euros. It will be to counteract what you can pay 1 euro for your album in basic version?
Returning to the disk download and summarizing, This means that there are no intermediaries or commissions and that what you decide to donate goes directly to the group (I wouldn't be so sure about this).
The reason is none other than to fight against piracy and that you are the one who makes the decision of what you want to pay based on how much you like the group. The Right Price??
As an initiative I find it most interesting., if this were to spread, to other groups or singers. Depending on your degree of fanaticism, the price of disk? let's see…
Be careful with news like this from the MTV where they assure that you will pay what you want and they will send it to your home. Not at all.
