U2's manager: 'Radiohead's 'In Rainbows' album backfired'

McGuinness is very snappy towards anyone that conflicts with his business interests. He left Ireland to avoid taxation, in his speech at the Midem convention in Cannes he advocated the breaching of human rights (by claiming governments should ban illegal music downloaders from the internet), he then picked fights with Apple, Facebook and Myspace over royalties and now as Radiohead attempt to change the way they produce music he starts barking at them like a terrier.Everything that comes out his pie hole is about money.
