Whether it's selling his CD's in Starbucks shops, creating one of the first video albums to show on TV, or shutting down traffic for TV appearances, McCartney has always embraced alternative avenues to publicize his new work: “Well, y'know, I don't think it really hurts. I think, it used to just be if you kind of got on radio, then that was kind of enough. But there's so much stuff that you're naturally excluded from just because of formatting. And then there's the Internet and all sorts of other ways for people to listen to music.”
