In Rainbows is out tomorrow. Ooooh, I'm excited!
Naturally, I went for the box set. I'sd be in two minds about spending £40 on an album by anyone else, but this is Radiohead we are talking about here. No brainer.
I'm in two minds about the whole experiment, though, I must say. I'm perfectly happy to see the stupid record companies get it in the neck, but I'm less happy about cutting the record shops out of the loop. (Yes, I'm quite aware that this is inconsistent, but still.) I buy almost all my music from real, meatspace record shops. For me, poking around looking for stuff, more often than not stumbling across something I wasn't expecting, is half the fun. If we don't buy from them, they'll just disappear.
Ah well. Download tomorrow!
Update: Bah! Bloody download doesn't work!
