Jane Siberry instituted this policy a couple of this years ago for her back-catalog. Interestingly, she posts the download statistics and surprisingly the average "donation" paid per download is very close to the suggested full-price. But then again, she has a very small, albeit cult following. But then again, Radiohead has a huge cult following. I wouldn't be surprised if Radiohead makes a total killing on this, especially since they are not splitting the pie with a label or iTunes. Somehow I believe this is going to end up being a very, very heavy blow to the music industry- of historic epic proportions.
