Free Paul McCartney
May 10th, 2008 by Hannah
Even Paul McCartney is getting in with the trends as he has announced that he’s going to give away his current studio album ‘Memory Almost Full’ in the May 18th edition of the UK’s Daily Mail. It’s not new though, it’s already been out for months! So why give it away for free now? The release has sold 100,000 copies but if he gives it away, it has the potential to reach 2 million homes. The paper’s managing director commented on the deal with Sir Paul saying “If you look at how he came to do the Starbucks’ album deal, it was a result of feeling unhappy with the music industry and looking at alternative ways of distribution. I can’t think of anyone else who has come up with the right alternative distribution than us.”
