lepeep Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 what made you buy it?(could it be my point that "packaging" makes all the difference now?)or is it just a collectors thing? (and the "extra" stuff...obviously!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Steven Dedalus Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 I still haven't heard the damn thing.I tried to download it (for free, no less) and it wouldn't work.So obviously Radiohead have a personal vendetta against me, and I'm therefore never going to listen to them ever again.

Personally I love the album. Some of the most beautiful, lush stuff they've ever done, and their best album since OK Computer in my opinion. I feel a bit bad for not paying for it now.

Lemonade Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Didnt you say in another thread that you never pay for music anyway?. Might be someone elseWell yeah, I did. I'm a walking contradiction. Could be simply cos I really love Radiohead. If it's a band that I really really love and want to support, as opposed to just listen to, then I will pay for their album, be it on CD or iTunes, however this is rare. Radiohead are one of these bands. And I do I sometimes pick up albums from the chart on a whim in Asda since they're generally under a tenner anyway.

Elizabeth Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Is the extra artwork and stuff really pretty?I might just buy it anyway, but I'm just checking. I didn't pay anything for the download, so, I'd like to pay for this higher quality, beast of a boxset... if it's got good shit to look at. I might put it on my walls.Are you able to put it on your walls? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
