Do you believe papering over the poorly received GUI change by suggesting "anyone have any better ideas?" as a PR exercise is a bold new future in sourcing design work? To me it looks like fail piled on top of fail. If Skype manages to get a successful new GUI out of crowdsourcing then your argument might demonstrate some validity. Your comparison is pretty shite. The RIAA is trying to maintain a cartel of middle-man promotional leverage. A call by designers to designers to not debase your professional leverage by giving your skills away for free is an entirely different kettle of fish.
