Radiohead is putting out a new album next week. They aren't setting a price for the download, you pay what you want for it. Brilliant. I already have mine pre-ordered, I think $20US is fair, if it's really good I'll buy the hardcopy too when it comes out in December. I haven't purchased a CD in years, iTunes gets my money, more than I would care to think. Artists make their money on touring not record sales, maybe this will shift the paradigm.
