Barenaked USB Drive

Posted by Zonk on from the not-a-bad-deal dept.

CryptoKnight writes "The Barenaked Ladies are releasing their next album via a reusable 128 MB USB flash drive. From the Seattle Post-Intelligencer article: 'Rather than distribute via CD, DVD or download, the Barenaked Ladies are making their newest selection of songs, videos and exclusive material available on a USB flash drive. Nettwerk Music Group is releasing Barenaked on a Stick beginning today, says the Hollywood Reporter. It plays on PCs, Macs and any other audio product with a USB port -- like some car stereos -- and costs $30.'"

    sounds like a pretty good deal to me though, content + resuable media.. (is it reusable??)

    The bare naked truth: I can buy a 128MB USB 2.0 flash drive for $10-12 and put songs I actually like on there.

    Shill for rich musicians much?
