"I'm an artist who works incredibly slowly," Gabriel said. "If some of those (songs) could be made available, you don't have to be so trapped into this old way of being confined only by the album cycle.

no shit. your last cd took, like, 10 years to come out.

anyway, this quote is from Gabriel, in an article on the same story, coming out in favor of selling single songs as opposed to whole albums.

what makes his attitude interesting is that it's 180 degrees out from bands like Metallica, Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Linkin Park who, to date, refuse to sell their songs online, on the grounds that breaking up the cd into singles compromises their art

get over it, fellas - file sharers are gonna break your stuff up anyway
