“Former Beatle Sir Paul McCartney will release his new album today — it’s called ‘Memory Almost Full.’ In an interview with the L.A. Times, he talked about ending his long-time relationship with EMI and making the new album fully downloadable through his new relationship with Starbucks’ Hear Music label. Some of his comments on the music industry: ‘I was bored with the old record company’s jaded view,’ McCartney says… ‘They’re very confused, and they will admit it themselves: that this is a new world, and they’re a little bit at a loss as to what to do. So they’ve got millions of dollars and X budget… for them to come up with boring ways — because they’ve been at it for so long — to what they call “market” it. And I find that all a bit disturbing.’”
