Radiohead Responds to Download Stats: Says They’re False »
Radiohead’s response to industry speculation on the success of the In Rainbows distribution model:
In response to purely speculative figures announced in the press regarding the number of downloads and the price paid for the album, the group’s representatives would like to remind people that… it is impossible for outside organisations to have accurate figures on sales.
However, they can confirm that the figures quoted by the company comScore Inc. are wholly inaccurate and in no way reflect definitive market intelligence or, indeed, the true success of the project.
I’m still interested in the actual success of this project and hope Radiohead releases official statistics at some point.
