New Nine Inch Nails album, all instrumental, released online for $5 with CDs to follow. The actual download site is toast. But they also put the first quarter of it up for free on bittorrent. So far I'm reminded of the instrumental interludes from his other albums, with a bit more drone to it. First two tracks are mostly piano.
Their take on the distribution method is interesting, too: they have five different purchase options ranging from free to $300. The $5 one gets you the full album digitally. Each level beyond that on the price scale buys you more physical goods: first CDs (so antiquated!) and a book, then multiple formats of the audio, all the way up to personally autographed LPs. "When copies are free, you need to sell things which can not be copied." It appears the entire album (?) is CC licensed, too.
