The End of The Rainbow
After all the joyous congratulatory news items that welcomed Radiohead’s decision to release In Rainbows as a ‘pay whatever you want’ download, the skies have cleared and Radiohead have decided that it’s time for this to stop.
Yes folks, we’re rolling back to the traditional outlets and traditional paid-for downloads for the CD release of the album – via XL Recordings – on 31 December 2007. According to c|net News, Radiohead are even negotiating with iTunes, which they’ve previously avoided because they reckoned they were obliged to sell tracks individually (which was a wrong assumption).
Next step? Radiohead sign to major label and normal service is resumed. Remember folks, follow the money..
