Radiohead
Driving home tonight, I sincerely regretted having let my time on the Radiohead message board lapse, because gods only know what their reaction to this was.

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=14869659

If you listen, essentially, Radiohead are releasing their newest album online for whatever price you want. Free, $1,000, whatever. Go ahead and name your price. The official hard copy comes out late this year, with a hefty price tag, but no label intervention.

I am all a-twitter at the concept and the possibilities.

All the major fanboards are losing their collective shit.

I'm still incoherent with glee over the whole thing.

I hope they don't pull a Stephen King and pull the whole thing offline in a huff, if they don't like how the honour system thing is treating them...

I'd say this prediction is the one I'd place my bet on. No one's going to pay a cent more than they have to for it and at 2c a pop our highly educated gentlemen will do the math fast enough.

I think that the "screw the record labels" factor is enough to get me to cough up a few bucks.

Hell, if it's good, I may have to go for the hard copy for the ZOMGVINYL.

I've bought two copies of many past Radiohead albums; I won't feel bad about paying slightly more modest amount for this one. :}
