Andy Rogers posted an interesting concept of melding the business models of **Radiohead** and **TOMS shoes** together on **[Music Think Tank](http://www.musicthinktank.com/blog/what-if-radiohead-and-toms-shoes-had-a-love-child.html?ref=hypebot.com)**. The TOMS shoes business model is founded on a simple premise: With every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need. Radiohead utilized the ‘name-your-own-price’ model to launch their album, In Rainbows. Rogers combined the two businesses together and made a buy one, give one free album where fans could pay any price. [Read on](http://www.musicthinktank.com/blog/what-if-radiohead-and-toms-shoes-had-a-love-child.html?ref=hypebot.com) to see how Rogers is using the business model:

“It has to be **win-win-win**, i.e. it needs to be good for the cause, good for your audience and lastly good for you – it should reflect your values.”
