A great time to be a Nine Inch Nails fan
A few days ago I received my copy of “Ghosts” in the mail. I paid $10USD about a month ago and got the FLACs that day and have been listening to them ever since. Having the physical CDs now is a nice bonus - in fact, I haven’t even bothered to take them out of the shrink-wrap plastic 
You might remember that “Ghosts” was released under a Creative Commons license and the MP3 versions were available for free (legitimately) via Bittorrent. Paying a bit extra got you the physical CDs (or Blu-ray or vinyl depending on how much you wanted to spend). “Ghosts” was released independent of any major label with no advertising yet the album was a huge success for Nine Inch Nails.
So, I was having a kick around musicbrainz and noticed a NIN release I hadn’t heard of - “The Slip”. I went to nin.com and this is what I found:
Click HERE to get the new full-length nine inch nails record: the slip (thank you for your continued and loyal support over the years - this one’s on me)
A couple of clicks later and I’m downloading FLACs of a brand new NIN album via Bittorrent for free and contemplating whether I want to spend 1.2GB of my monthly data cap on the 24kbit/96kHz WAV files So, if you’re a NIN fan, join the swarm!
It’s a great time to be a Nine Inch Nails fan.
