EMI's latest solution to industry-haemorrhage
 

I thought this article might interest some of you. In the latest in a line of clutching at straws, the industry starts getting ideas from Pearl Jam or the Grateful Dead.

In other news, the Beatles' cash cow being milked some more

Thoughts? Diatribes? Asinine comments about how it doesn't matter and have you seen the latest photograph I took of myself?

Fuck The Credit!! Fuck It In The Ass!!! Fuck The Beedles And Emi!! FUck Them In The Asss!!!!!

may the prosecution to bootleggers begin! there's cash to be made!

I quite like the idea, in theory. Obviously, there's not a massive cost to putting out a live record, and presumably it'll be print-on-demand, which is more in line with lean manufacturing (something the record industry has always been shit at). I don't think it'll save the industry, but it'll probably keep it in stasis at the brink for another few years.

My friend sozavac sent me this

download all beatles tracks (remastered and not) for only 25 cents

lol at the Beatles USB stick. 200 sterling pounds!!!!

I like the idea of pressing them before you leave the concert like they did for the orchestra. I'm sure when I go to the show on 11/22 if I can take home a copy of the show for under 20 bucks I'll bite.
