Telling Lies

This is bit of a fanboy post admittedly, but I was just looking for an entry on Wikipedia for the movie "Telling Lies" and instead came across the entry for David Bowie's song by the same name.

According to Wikipedia (and I paraphrase Sherm here with an "I know, I know") "Telling Lies" (from the "Earthling" album) was the first freely downloadable single from a major artist.

Three versions of "Telling Lies" were released on Bowie's official website beginning September 11, 1996 — one version was released for each of three weeks — constituting the first ever downloadable single by a major artist. According to issued press releases, over 300,000 people downloaded the original Internet-only release. Two months later it was released as a single by BMG in Europe.
