Radiohead 'Leaked' Their Own Track in 2009, Now We're Accused of Pirating It.
In 2009, we reported how a leaked Radiohead track was probably leaked by the band itself. 15 years later, suddenly it's us accused of piracy.
Tldr: it's XL Recordings (the company that owns Radioheads catalog) and Google that are trying to file the claim, not anyone in Radiohead.
I'm surprised Radiohead don't own their catalog, tbh.
I think thats the case for most artists and their art... Specially in the music industry
Artists that give away entire albums tend to own the music. That doesn't seem to be the case with Radiohead.
Warner Chapell does
which now operates as part of Beggars Group Digital
Wow that's a really fitting name for a copyright troll!
Pirating is good. Pirating ziohead is even better.
Thom has a point about Trump and not playing in America. Personally I'd rather see more people boycott America.
Because he's been through the desert on a horse with no rain?
Wow, what a terrible article. The author doesn't engage with any of the substantive points Radiohead and Nick Cave are making, he just disparages them and insists on his obvious moral superiority. It's dressed up in some, admittedly, very nice writing, but this is just childish name calling.
Still, interesting read. Thanks for sharing.
