Coldplay follows in Radiohead's Footsteps
Coldplay will make available - free - for one week only their new track "Violet" starting tomorrow. The album is entitled "Viva." They also have two dates for free concerts. Why only one week? I thought the idea behind making free music was for fans who couldn't afford to attend concerts or download music. Back in the day, that was the meaning of free music. Accessing free music today means that fans are pirates and the band provides a small slice as a marketing tool.

Huh. Looks like they're not doing much to shed that Radiohead Lite thing they have going after all.
ps - this is NOT a hipster knowitall post. I rock Coldplay often. Softly, of course.
I really like Coldplay, too. I felt disappointed! I rock the band often, too! My husband and I had the DJ spin Coldplay at our wedding.
