MORE BOWIE: How visionary was Bowie? He had the internet nailed in 1999, and the internet's effect on the music biz in 2002, which may explain his innovative Bowie Bonds. He was the first major-label artist to sell a complete album online in download form. He confronted MTV in 1983 about the paucity of videos by black artists. Bowie's 80s period is surveyed in an interview with the L.A. Times. The German Foreign Office posthumously thanked Bowie for helping bring down the Berlin Wall. In 2002, Bowie talked to Fresh Air about the Ziggy Stardust era.  60 Minutes published previously unseen interview footage from 2003. In March 2004, Bowie wrote Esquire abut "What I've Learned."  Longtime collaborator Brian Eno revealed Bowie's final words to him.
