Open Source Music Makes *A LOT* Of Money

Posted by Rod Hilton on March 20th, 2008 in Open Source Trends

Just following up on the post about how Trent Reznor's Open Source-style music made $750,000 in a few days…

Those figures were for the premium edition only.  Some new numbers have been released, and Nine Inch Nails has made $1.6 million off the freely available album.

It's also worth mentioning the Trent lambasted Radiohead for being insincere about their free internet offering, even though they were on top of the whole album-for-free bandwagon.
