How much did you pay for the new Radiohead album?

Posted on October 02, 2007

As you probably know, Radiohead's new album, In Rainbows, is currently available for pre-order. Everybody's talking about the band's brilliant marketing plan - - allowing listeners to choose the price they pay for a downloadable copy of their digital album. Quite a unique model.

A co-worker here at Lime Wire decided he wanted to pay $500 for the album. However, the online order form maxed out at £99.99, which came out to $205.81. Come on, Radiohead. People think you're worth more than that.

Here's the statement:

    I paid £10, so that comes out to about $22. Absolutely worth it!
