are following radiohead's
"in rainbows" lead
aka fan-determined pricing for the album

one dude.

guy hands

GUY HANDS
HAS
GUY HANDS

at his private equity company
Terra Firma
which bought EMI two months ago

communicating that the "industray"

moral of the post:
hey music business
you better change
because bands and fans
are rearranging things for you!
