I'd never have thought he would have such a foul mouth. (Fowl mouth. D'ya geddit?? Ok. I'll stop now.) Isn’t Busby a small yellow bird?

It is wrong to give music away for free but Radiohead could afford to do it. Very few people paid nothing for the album - it averaged around £10 a person, goes to show that most of their listeners do place a high value on their work. Be as cynical as you like Nap but I do believe the exercise proved a major point about the music industry. Chew on. I totally agree with you Napoleon.

It is cavalier and gives the wrong impression, ie that even the writers and musicians themselves place little or no value on the work.
