"Since bands can no longer sell audio, FF decline to provide it"
instead, they're basically going to present sheet music for fans and tribute bands to interpret, perform, and record. in this way, they're making their new album completely interpretive, interactive, and viral. ummm.... sounds damn smart to me.
i think it's going to be an interesting experiment. and at the end of the day, every indie band is gonna say, why didn't we think of that?
