George Michael 'retiring to internet'

Ananova.com reports George Michael ‘retiring to internet’

George Michael is retiring from the music business to become an Internet-only artist.

The singer said he will never make another album for sale in record shops - because he does not need the money and is sick of being famous.

Instead he intends to put all future songs on the Internet for free. Fans will be invited to make donations in exchange for downloading the tracks, which multi-millionaire Michael will give to charity. The 40-year-old star made the surprise announcement during an interview with Jo Whiley on Radio 1.
