Super down for a rerun. I think we all have some old connections to plan something ahead of time, on an updated game, or even outdated, for all of us to do an event on. I would look forward to that very much

 chiggity-check this shit out!

this is the website to pre-order the new radiohead album. radiohead is allowing fans to choose how much they want to pay for downloading the album. $0.00 if you so choose!

also for sale is a boxset that includes the CD, vinyl, and other goodies PLUS the ability to download the album "free".

radiohead is doing something important here, so let me hop on the soapbox for a second...

first, they make the important distinction between music as advertising and music as a product. they are giving fans the opportunity to download the music for free, and then offering a high quality product with all sorts of goodies for purchase. this makes me a happy fan, and i WILL buy the boxset because of this, even though it's 80 bucks.

second, they are cutting out the middle man: the FUCKING record companies (i hate thems). i know that when i buy the songs or the boxset that the money will be GOING TO RADIOHEAD. not the 10 cents they MIGHT get off a traditional CD purchase, or the 3 cents they would get off an iTunes purchase, but damn near the full amount.

i hope this is the start of a trend, and i hope they post the results of how much money they make off this. bravo.

 I didn't realize we could pre-order it, and since it's Radiohead that's pretty sick. I gotta say that I don't plan on getting the box set though, $82 on music (sans player) is too steep for me.

Radiohead is a great band. You can tell a lot about a person based on whether he likes the song Creep. If he likes the song, then he is a decent person. If he doesn't, then he is an asshole.

boxsets are for fans, obviously you arent a real fan.




Thanks for the heads up though Jigga, my friend told me to look into it, but I got lazy til you showed me I could pre-order tongue haha, thanks. Should be a good one along with all their other classics cheesey

Haha that's a good way to put it.

I've only listened to a few of Radiohead songs in my life but they have been good ones. That's pretty awesome they offer the cd to the fans for free but I'm almost sure that I would pay at least a small amount to them for what they do. They have been a great influence on many bands and around for a long time so they deserve the credit. If they do make a lot of money it will show that Americans still have a bit of decency left to support bands and pay for stuff. If not, then we all will know for sure that our country is heading in the wrong direction.

I think that's a little unfair Zero. A lot of us, including me, can't afford that. Many of us don't have jobs.
