Trent Reznor soitto- ja lauluorkesteri nine inch nailsista ilmoitti NIN-sivuilla, ettei enää tee maksisinkkuja Eurooppaan, koska ne ovat rahastusta, eikä pysty hyväksymään, että Year Zerosta revitään kohtuutonta hintaa Australiassa.
Kuulostaa reilulta. Aistin, että levy-yhtiön vaihto on odotettavissa.

As the climate grows more and more desperate for record labels, their answer to their mostly self-inflicted wounds seems to be to screw the consumer over even more. A couple of examples that quickly come to mind:
* The ABSURD retail pricing of Year Zero in Australia. Shame on you, UMG. Year Zero is selling for $34.99 Australian dollars ($29.10 US). No wonder people steal music. Avril Lavigne’s record in the same store was $21.99 ($18.21 US).
By the way, when I asked a label rep about this his response was: ”It’s because we know you have a real core audience that will pay whatever it costs when you put something out – you know, true fans. It’s the pop stuff we have to discount to get people to buy.”
So… I guess as a reward for being a ”true fan” you get ripped off.* The dreaded EURO Maxi-single. Nothing but a consumer rip-off that I’ve been talked into my whole career. No more.
The point is, I am trying my best to make sure the music and items NIN puts in the marketplace have value, substance and are worth you considering purchasing. I am not allowing Capital G to be repackaged into several configurations that result in you getting ripped off.
We are planning a full-length remix collection of substance that will be announced soon.”
