Since yesterday the latest album “In Rainbows” of the British band Radiohead is available. That’s not a big deal – but the exciting thing is, it can be downloaded – for free. It’s totally up to the user whether he pays and how much. The first polls showed that about 2/3 of the 3000 first people, who downloaded the album, paid for it. On average, the users paid 5.70€.
Some of the users complained about the fact, that it’s not possible to pay after you downloaded the album and found it worth some money.
Some other artists like Jamiroquai und Oasis, also think about a similar way to publish their songs.
What about you? Would you pay for any album if it’s up to you?

Very nice thing to do from them. I think I would certainly pay if I could make sure before that it is good.
Great idea...if all records are sold like that, there won't be any crap music in the future.
just to have a good conscience? definitely not! not even if they accepted paypal.
They've been all over the press with it. Great idea I think... plus they are a great band!
