Radiohead Get Jilted By The Media
The numbers are out and estimates are that Radiohead pocketed between 6 and 10 million dollars in sales for their “pay-what-you-want” release of “In Rainbows“. For detailed stats, visit comScore.
In typical fashion, the media has chosen to dig their heels into the 62% of “buyers” that paid zero for “In Rainbows”. Collateral damage I say! I wonder how that six-million plus dollar take compares to what any given major label artists earns from a big budget CD release.
