Pues si que les ha salido bien. SObre esa cifra se han embolsado los colegas, q ademas se han ahorrado gastos de distribucion y demas pasos intermedios entre artista y publico. Lo mismo los artistas vuelven a ganar dinero con sus discos y no solo con las giras.
(Gigwise) It appears that the offer to fans to pay whatever they like for a CD download didn't result in fans being cheap. While they apparently paid about half of what a new CD costs in stores, Radiohead has already made almost $10 million dollars from their revolutionary new business model in less than a week according to an estimate from Gigwise.
If the actual numbers come anywhere close to these estimates we are indeed witnessing a major revolution in popular music that may forever change how established artists release music. Here is part of the Gigwise report: A poll of in excess of 3,000 people on a Record of the Day website has found that the average price a Radiohead fan paid for a copy of 'In Rainbows' was £4.
Corroborated with our exclusive that the Oxford band shifted 1.2million copies of the album – thanks to inside knowledge of a source close to the band – it means that Radiohead could have potentially earned a massive £4.8million from the album already! -

pues parece que no era del todo cierto...
Según ComScore al parecer solo 4 de cada 10 fans se descargó el disco de manera "legal" y los que pagaron, se gastaron una media de 6 dolares.

a ver si al menos sirve para que se den cuenta que pagar 20 euros por un cd es un atraco!

Radiohead front-man Thom Yorke has revealed that the band’s digital income from ‘In Rainbows’ has surpassed all of their previous albums put together. Speaking to Wired magazine, in an interview conducted by Talking Head’s David Byrne, Yorke described the digital sales of ‘In Rainbows’ as “nuts.”
“It’s partly due to the fact that EMI wasn’t giving us any money for digital sales. All the contracts signed in a certain era have none of that stuff,” he added.
Yorke also revealed that the idea to allow fans to name what price they paid for the album was the brainchild of the bandÂ’s manager Chris Hufford.
“It wasn’t nihilistic, implying that the music’s not worth anything at all,” explained Yorke. “It was the total opposite. And people took it as it was meant. Maybe that’s just people having a little faith in what we’re doing. “The only reason we could even get away with this, the only reason anyone even gives a sh*t, is the fact that we’ve gone through the whole mill of the business in the first place. “It’s not supposed to be a model for anything else. It was simply a response to a situation. We’re out of contract. We have our own studio. We have this new server. What the hell else would we do?”
