I believe Trent Reznor was selling no-DRM FLAC files in the release of Nine Inch Nails' Ghosts release and the Saul Williams record he produced. He also gave away 96/24 files for free on his latest NIN album.

I am intrigued to find that at least one website (http://www.hdtracks.com)
is selling CD-quality music tracks, with FLAC as a format option, and no
DRM. I'm curious whether anyone else is using FLAC commercially. This is
obviously only a case or two, but would this not bode well for the future
of the format?
