Music Industry Attacks Free Prince CD

Let’s get this straight. An artist wants to be generous and release a CD completely free, but is unable without a backlash from the music industry. Yes, this just makes so much sense. The music industry has been shooting itself in the foot constantly lately. How much will it take before they finally clue in to how clueless they are?

You might not like Prince, but he’s planning on giving away a free CD in a national British newspaper. Harmless publicity, right? The music industry disagrees. Executives are practically going insane over the idea and are threatening to ‘retaliate’. ‘The Artist Formerly Known as Prince should know that with behavior like this he will soon be the Artist Formerly Available in Record Stores.
