You are not putting forth an argument against my statement. I said "a fair price" and did not include $0.00. Louis CK charged $5. Radiohead and Reznor/Williams let buyers choose. These are very different experiments.
Lastly, I was a huge Radiohead fan until their "In Rainbows" release. I thought it was horrible. After previewing the songs, I didn't buy/download it. I wanted to very badly, because I wanted the experiment to work. I think they did the experiment on that collection of songs because they knew they sucked.
While I understand and see your first point, I strongly disagree with your assessment of the album. It was one of their best, IMO, and critics and fans seemed to have loved it. Go figure.
I wasn't the biggest fan of "The King of Limbs," however.
