Fought Ticketmaster: NIN did that like 5 years ago
Pearl Jam did it 15 years ago. NIN didn't do jack at that point.

Offered copies of live shows: NIN did that last year and they released 450GB of unedited HIGH DEFINITION footage
Pearl Jam's been releasing copies for close to a decade.

Quote:
Released album on internet: NIN did that like 2 years ago and in better quality and format than Radiohead or anyone else that was a "pioneer"
Pearl Jam has also released most of their albums on vinyl, sometimes before they're available on CD.

Good try though. Say what you want about PJ being more popular, I don't listen to NIN because they are popular but because I like their music. But don't for a second pretend that any of that stuff you listed NIN hasn't already done and moved on. TR is way ahead of everything you listed, whether you like NIN or not TR is a pioneer in the music business.
A lot of the stuff TR has done has been copying Pearl Jam. He's been 10 years behind them in most stuff. So how can he be ahead?
