How profitable was Radiohead’s experiment with In Rainbows?

15 Wednesday Oct 2008

According to the NME, the figures for last years sales experiment with In Rainbows.  Despite all the criticism from the likes of Paul McGuinness (U2’s manager) it turns out that the download approach generated more income than Radiohead’s previous album Hail To The Thief.  The report indicates that a large proportion of people didn’t pay anything for the album, but enough did to make a difference.  I’m sure that critics will attribute to issues such as the effort made to promote the album (Radiohead’s last for EMI), how good or bad the Hail to The Thief was and so forth.

It will be interesting to see if the model is picked up by more artists (other than Radiohead and Nine Inch Nails) given these new figures.

Tracking multiple email accounts

In this day and age, email addresses are like bank accounts – we’ve got more than one, and we need to keep an eye on them with varying degrees of regularity.  As a sideline of webmaster and Hotmail (Live mail) email client getting heavier on resource needs all the time. Having a small tool to monitor my many email addresses without resorting to using my work Outlook being muddied by non work stuff and visa versa for my home mail client.

To help with this I’ve started using a brilliant little application called POP Peeper, it can watch webmail like Hotmail, GMail account as well as good old fashioned POP3, SMTP etc.  Its easy to setup and then let it sit out of the way on the toolbar and flag up when something arrives in the mail box.  You can then look at the email in this little lightweight tool.
