Radiohead has a new material, In Rainbows , which in addition to maintaining good taste in music has accustomed us, brings us a preunta is this cd comes to mark a before and after in the music industry?. The British group by going counter to the industry with its paranoid, hyper-protectionist view of the business (for example on the infamous Sony rootkit DMR ) decided that his seventh material is distributed from the group's official site without intermediaries ie without involving any label or online music store. This is already a novelty but the strongest point is that the quintet decided that the time you can choose to download the album as the band want to donate depending on how you think it's fair to pay, including the extreme case where low overall disk Free!.

No not the English group will not disappear or have to live counting coins represent the record executives. With this new form of distribution and elimination of intermediaries Radiohead happen to make a lot more money.

Why should you financially? An artist receives on average only 8% (1 to 2 dollars) of what we pay for a cd, Radiohead thus keep 100% of what you donate at the time of discharge the disc.

But but how many people on the album? According to unofficial sources (but close to the band) in the first week was downloaded 1.2 million hard times. If we compare this with first week sales of his last 3 jobs "Hail to the Thief" 300,000, "Amnesiac" 231,000, "Kid A" 207.000 according to official figures the result is clearly a success of "sales".

But people paid? On average people "donated" U $ D 8 each, which (by accounts that even my nephew can do) the gain is U $ D $ 9.6 million, an amount greater than extremely receive if they were tied to a label.

Missed mashup created by DJ Earworm in using For No One Beatles, along with Take Your Mama Scissor Sisters. Freedom parties also appear '90 Think of George Michael and Aretha Franklin.

In addition, as explained by DJ Earworm : "Take Your Mama" took part "Freedom" which, in turn drew on "Think", so I play fits. Excellent. We need new copyright laws urgently to enable and legitimize this kind of thing, as this mashup today is illegal.

The term describes a group of copyleft licenses that apply to a variety of jobs such as software , the literature , the music and art . A copyleft license is based on the rules on copyright , which are seen by proponents of copyleft as a way of restricting the right to make and redistribute copies of a particular job, to ensure that each person receiving a copy or a derivative of a job, can in turn use, modify, and redistribute both the work itself and derived versions of it. Thus, and in a non-legal, copyleft can be considered as opposed to copyright .

For many people, copyleft is a technique that uses copyright as a means to subvert the restrictions imposed by the copyright traditionally on the spread and development of knowledge. With this approach, the copyleft is primarily a tool in a larger operation, the intention is to permanently reverse those restrictions.
