I would like to see a recordcompany put up that amouint of PR for a first releese.The problems of the record industry really is all about lack of imagination and skill.It consists of money counters that knowqs zip about music. “it was not an option for new bands”

Personally I'm an artist myself so I felt like chiming in on this one. All of my tunes are free, I even made torrents of them. Sure maybe only, ten, fifteen people have downloaded them from torrents total (as opposed to a million)...but who cares? Music should be about sharing (keyword there, sharing) your ideas and your creation with others, why else would I bother recording it in the first place?? For myself to listen to?! If people feel some crazy compelling need to give me money for my hard work, hundreds of free songs, storyline, and all that crap, they can do so on paypal and I will happily waste it on tacos. I really hope record labels are on the way out and musicians everywhere can start breaking out of the norm. I'm tired of one album from a band every one-two years with one "hit" on the entire thing. People make a big deal out of an artist releasing two discs worth of boring material at once, like it's some kind of feat. Write better songs, write more of them, or hang it up and go back to flipping burgers! That's all I have to say on the matter. Ciao.

The music guys would prefer you record it off the radio for the simple fact you would be subject to their ads. Unlike the other ads you saw when you downloaded it. @Thirdman

Buying the album from itunes or a shop or wherever means that the band would only get a fraction of the money from the sales, the record companies all make a lot of oney from each sale which is a lot more that what the band are getting. If the band got say 1USD for each sale using the traditional methods they would still be making less that what they got doing it this way. Some people will always get there music for free from BT or copying the CD from a friend so it does not make too much difference. To me it is a success if they band have more money in there pocket now than if they used the traditional method of using a record company. It is a good album.

I wouldn't have bought it. That's not to say that it's a bad album, just not one that I'd have gone out of my way to find in a music store. End result: I have the new Radiohead album on my hard drive, which I may occasionally listen to. They have not gained, or lost anything as a result. What's the difference between that and me recording it from the radio? I downloaded it for free. I wouldn’t have bought it.
