Re: This will work

Lets see: still makes millions upon millions from film licensing, merchandising, and concerts, while he gets direct revenue from whomever buys the album instead of the small amount he received from the labels.

Even if only ten thousand of his millions of fans buy the album, I think he'll do ok. Piracy means that albums have become promotional material for artist brands, essentially, with real revenue coming elsewhere.

With the added bonus of myopic old executives without vision, terrified of taking risks, convinced that scorched earth legal tactics are how you run a business -- getting cut out of the revenue stream.
