Radiohead's Latest

Radiohead have shaken things up a little bit by making their latest album, "In Rainbows," available only from their website, and for exactly as much as you feel like paying for it. Yep, that's right, pay what you want for it and download away, DRM-free. As I write this, the last song of the album is playing on my iPod. The whole album, start to finish, is brilliant, well worth what I paid for it.

And just how much did I pay for it, seeing as I could pay whatever I wanted? Well, I sort of took what I thought was the average cost of a 10-song album on iTunes, converted that amount to pounds, and paid that much. The only disappointment I had was that there was no album art associated with the mp3 files; no worries, there are plenty of candidates out there for you to download. Anyway, I hope you buy the album, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
