“Radiohead made the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time since 1996 because the remix stems for “Nude” counted towards sales totals for the song. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this. Note to bands and labels: If you release the elements of your songs for remixing (even non-commercial remixing), not only will you have more items to sell in iTunes, but your songs could chart much higher, leading to yet further revenue.”
