Medieval Cow writes "Sir Paul McCartney has a side project called The Fireman and he's just released their new album, Electric Arguments, as a digital download. Where this becomes of interest to the Slashdot community is the fact that he released it "100% DRM free". You can purchase just the digital files, or if you purchase a physical CD or vinyl copy, you are also given access to the digital download. Not only that, but the download is available as in 320 kbps MP3, Apple Lossless, and even FLAC formats. If you're interested in trying before you buy, you can listen to the entire album in a Flash player on the main page of the site. It's so nice to see a big musician who gets it. Bravo, Paul!"

and a host of other artists who would rather see happy fans than a happy RIAA. My hat's off to them all.
