"Radiohead new album: a tactic to sell CDs?
Band's management confident fans will buy album after download
12.Oct.07 10:15am
Radiohead's management have suggested that the unique marketing of their new album 'In Rainbows' was a ploy manufactured to sell more CDs.
Bryce Edge, part of Radiohead's management team, said that there was an ulterior motive to the pricing.
He told Music Week: "If we didn't believe that when people hear the music they will want to buy the CD then we wouldn't do what we are doing.""
Well, while everyone thought radiohead was supposed to re-invent music distribution it turns it's a marketing ploy. I might buy the cd, but one thing I'm sure of is I'm happy I inserted 0.00$ in that tooltip!
