Monty Python-material på YouTube orsakar försäljningsökning

En artikel (som hittas här om man vill kolla källor) på Slashdot berättar om att Monty Python lade upp en del av sitt material på YouTube, och på amazon.com kan man se att de efter det fick en kraftig ökning i försäljningen, eftersom folk fick en försmak och gillade grejen (så klart.)

An anonymous reader writes,
"Apparently it with the release of all of Monty Python's material on YouTube, their sales have blown through the roof on Amazon.com. It is too bad there isn't any proper news article about this, but I think it bodes well for those who champion free content. More importantly, it forces the MPAA's feet into their mouths."
Not every performer (or group of performers) has the decades-strong appeal of Monty Python, but this is a great thing to see. The linked article claims that the sales increase in the Python DVDs is 23,000 percent; there are probably some other ways to figure the numbers, but a big increase is easy to see.

  1. Minstrel: [singing] Brave Sir Robin ran away...
    Sir Robin: *No!*
    Minstrel: [singing] bravely ran away away...
    Sir Robin: *I didn't!*
    Minstrel: [singing] When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled.
    Sir Robin: *I never did!*
    Minstrel: [singing] Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about, and valiantly, he chickened out.
    Sir Robin: *Oh, you liars!*
    Minstrel: [singing] Bravely taking to his feet, he beat a very brave retreat. A brave retreat by brave Sir Robin.
