I gotta give it to him. For all the negative comments on TechCrunch in response to the TuneCore Tells Us Where We Can Shove It entry, Jeff Price has probably never seen his website, TuneCore, go down because of too much traffic (a very positive thing).

Well, that’s what happened yesterday when he managed to tick off the wrong right person, Michael Arrington.

Talk about publicity. In a cursory survey of TechCrunch comment numbers, I found that a blog post rarely got more than 20 comments. The TuneCore post, as of this writing, has over 230!

Rudeness marketing, indeed.
