  • oodanner, on 10/13/2007, -5/+147I say everybody who hates the RIAA should buy this album even if you don't like them. Even give them a few bucks just to show other artists that this is a viable alternative to the big blood sucking recording industry.
  • undershirt, on 10/14/2007, -10/+143Binary 101010 is 42...
  • fatlip, on 10/20/2007, -2/+126OMFG AND THE PAGE TAKES 10 MINUTES TO LOAD!
  • jimjimovich, on 10/12/2007, -10/+102Way to go Radiohead - stick it to the man!
  • inactive, on 10/20/2007, -4/+69Amazing that a band does something like this for the general public, yet people still find it necessary to troll the message boards and be negative. Seriously, what could you possibly say about a band offering their new album for download, and allowing you to pay whatever you feel is justified (including nothing)? Yeah, that sucks, man. I'm going to troll the boards myself. Stupid bands with their wanting to do something good for their fans. Who do they think they are, Hertz?
  • afidler, on 10/21/2007, -4/+54i gave them a couple pounds for their efforts and the fact that i'm a poor college student...
    then i realized two british pounds are like $482 american.
    i was really pissed, but the album is reallly good so i'm not that mad anymore.
  • t1t0, on 10/12/2007, -1/+42It seems the 10 servers are being hit pretty hard... I've been trying to buy it since this morning, impossible to navigate normally on the site!
  • AlexanderBlue, on 10/12/2007, -6/+45There are 10 types of people in the world. Those that understand binary, and those that do not.
  • mr1337, on 10/11/2007, -1/+33110010100 (Binary for 404)
  • Carlsberg, on 10/12/2007, -10/+41How exactly are they sticking it to the "man"? They are currently talking to EMI about their "future" with them and will most likely release the album again under a label, even if it is only as a distributor
  • jackyyll, on 10/20/2007, -4/+28No, it's 42.

  • AK10, on 10/12/2007, -1/+23The website might be slow, but the actual content servers are still fast. I just downloaded the nearly 50mb zip in about 2 minutes.
  • Koldkompress, on 10/20/2007, -0/+19They should turn it up to Eleven.
  • Unclekoolaid, on 10/11/2007, -1/+20Its just the internet hate machine, youll learn to live with it
  • Jware, on 10/11/2007, -16/+34"Ten years after OK Computer shocked the world"
    it was a classic, inventive album, but let's try and rein in the absurd fanboy hyperbole. the only things it shocked were music critics and alt-rock heads.
  • sittered, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18682 = 2^8 * 10 + 42
  • mywhitenoise, on 10/20/2007, -3/+20theres also rumors that they will sign to WB, and VERY soon.

    I also don't like how a lot of people are saying NIN "is pulling a Radiohead", even though Trent has been very vocal about his opinions for the last few years.

  • inactive, on 11/03/2007, -0/+14I think everyone should find the RIAA headquarters and commit suicide on their lawn in protest. I can't make it though. I gotta work.

  • thebellmaster1x, on 10/20/2007, -0/+10There are 10 types of people in the world. Those that understand binary, those that don't, and those who can differentiate binary from Gray Code.
  • c0ldfusi0n, on 10/11/2007, -8/+18Digging you back down to 10 diggs for kicks.
  • taosd, on 10/20/2007, -0/+10There is no minimum...
  • Christbait, on 10/11/2007, -1/+11Better sit even further back, because your post has 10 diggs.
  • EVogel, on 10/11/2007, -0/+10They are sticking it to the man because when they walk into the room to discuss their contract, they will ultimately have all the power. The label will have to bend to their wishes because they can say "Hey, we made this, we think its pretty good. We sold it, and lots of other people think its pretty good. Do you want to talk?". I can guarantee they wont have any trouble finding a label that wants to have them. I imagine it's quite liberating for a band to have most of the negotiating power.
  • Spetz, on 10/11/2007, -5/+13I read binary when I looked at the title. :(
  • ImWatchingYou, on 10/12/2007, -0/+842 is the answer, not the magic number.
  • timmyboywonder, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10I really wish they would let you pay with Paypal. I hate giving my credit card info out

  • marcomc2, on 10/11/2007, -3/+11I can hardly contain myself over how ***** cathartic, satisfying, and simple this record is.
    I think it is perfect. Beautiful. I Love You Radiohead.

  • RobotChicken1, on 03/07/2008, -0/+7Also note that EMI is going DRM free, so at least it's a step in a the right direction.
