I love Jamiroquai! His music is so inspiring and so awesome! It reminds me of Eric Solomon- you should check him out! http://www.EricSolomonMusic.com. They have similar styles and vocal techniques. Virtual Reality for life!

I second that comment from Ethos14. I also heard Trent years ago wanting to go this way…just didn’t have the chance until now. FrankLives, as much as I like Radiohead, they could have “stolen” the idea (as other minor players in this business have done also before, having their fans chose the price online without a label)…but who cares, whoever it is, it’s all about the trend and way to go and not about the creation of the “idea”…and by the way NIN is no Radiohead….and Radiohead is no NIN….I love them both (in my top 3 bands) in their own way!

NIN/Trent Reznor had made it clear a LONG time ago that he was going to go independent and self-release his music. Definitely before any mention of Radiohead. The title of the news story is incredibly inaccurate, and unfair to NIN.

NIN’s strategy was completely different, as they released the album on their label anyways and it still sold well. Radiohead has released the album WITHOUT A LABEL. still, NIN isn’t Radiohead. not by a LONG SHOT.

I got the download and am pleasantly suprised of its beauty and great decision to leave the crushing and crippling effects music companies have on the talents that musicians want to portray of their own music. GOOD FOR YOU RADIOHEAD!!! We as fans must support this type of way that will excite great talents who want to make their own form of music. I bought the boxset and will continue to support this way of “Business”. I love you you Radiohead and thank you for giving me an outlet to praise the Lord and to take my mind off the pains of life and replace them with goodness and grace of your beautiful voice and the talent of the band. Viva La Radiohead!!!

I believe NIN was actually ahead of Radiohead on this one.
