![Trent Reznor talks openly about his experience with giving away music](https://cdn.afterdawn.fi/v3/news/Nine Inch Nails.jpg)
Reznor seemed somewhat surprised and disappointed by the figures, commenting that perhaps he had given people too much credit, but at the same time he doesn't see the release as a mistake. When asked what he wished he had done differently, he said "I think if we could wave a magic wand and do it again I think being able to offer an inexpensive version in addition to a premium physical product that could be shipped out afterward."
He also noted that if he were releasing an album of his own right now he would "do something very similar to what we just did cause I don't think there is a better option."
Williams, on the other hand, was quite optimistic about the figures, saying "We're off to a running start. We still have a physical release date to look forward to. We still have touring to look forward to. We still have marketing and promotion that all starts this year, so I don't regret anything. Not yet."
