THE NIN HOTLINE

A recent story on The Guardian talks with a few musicians regarding music and technology, and includes a bit with Trent Reznor about the use of the 'hidden' USB drives. nickynomad posted the bit with Reznor on ets:

"The USB drive was simply a mechanism of leaking the music and data we wanted out there," he explained. "The medium of the CD is outdated and irrelevant. It's really painfully obvious what people want - DRM-free music they can do what they want with. If the greedy record industry would embrace that concept I truly think people would pay for music and consume more of it."

Thanks to nickynomad for sharing.
