Interesting that it will be available on vinyl in a complete set with CD and download:

DISCBOX

Price is a bit steep at 40 Pounds...
I just had a chance to listen to it as well - I actually like this already as much as Kid A. Wide range of songs with some really outstanding ones:

15 Steps (great opener with explosive beats)
All I need (agree - very much in Kid A style)
House of Cards
Now the sad truth is that it was a publicity stunt
designed
to extract more money from their fans.

Not if they paid 0$ for the download and now some might do this actually....

You are free to vote with your wallet. Vote 0$ if you feel that any amount is
overcharged for an mp3 file and then order the special edition version which
includes the LP to make the point for high quality releases. Just a matter of
your point of view and the statement you would like to make.
