Prices & comments
£ | Country | Comment / Will you buy the CD and/or the Discbox later? |
|---|---|---|
| £0.50 | United Kingdom | Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Not Answered* |
| £0.50 | United States | love the album Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Undecided |
| £0.55 | United Kingdom | Never took a shine to Radiohead, but there new album is quite good. Might even buy the CD when it comes out. However, when making my choice I didn't want to promote buying music for nothing, such as on filesharing websites by entering 0.00 but didn't want to promote this idea too much, i still really like buying physical CD's. On reflection I should have paid much more for it but, hey they don't have to pay any recording company so .... Discbox?: No CD?: Undecided |
| £0.60 | United Kingdom | i liked the idea a lot, and only chose to pay such a small price because im going to buy the discbox as soon as i get paid. Discbox?: Yes CD?: Not Answered* |
| £0.79 | United Kingdom | well i only want one track ;) Discbox?: No CD?: Not Answered* |
| £0.86 | United Kingdom | Because i'm cheap... Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Not Answered* |
| £0.99 | United Kingdom | good idea Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Not Answered* |
| £0.99 | United Kingdom | Can't say their other albums ever deserved more than that so I chose 99p. I thought I might choose to pay the artist direct by seeing them at a gig but this album is just yet another pile of crap in their doscography so that won't be happening. Discbox?: No CD?: Not Answered* |
| £0.99 | United Kingdom | Not including the credit card charge. If it's any good, I'll bung Greenpeace a fiver. Discbox?: No CD?: Not Answered* |
| £0.99 | United Kingdom | I went back and bought the DiscBox version as well Discbox?: Yes CD?: Not Answered* |
| £0.99 | Canada | Never listened to radiohead before. This might be a catalyst. Doubt it though. Discbox?: No CD?: Not Answered* |
| £1.00 | United Kingdom | it was all i had left on my credit-card ! Discbox?: Yes CD?: Not Answered* |
| £1.00 | Canada | I'm a poor student, so I don't feel bad about only paying that. I couldn't just take it for free (even though I download lots of other music for free...) though. Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Not Answered* |
| £1.00 | United Kingdom | A pound more than if i downloaded from a torrent. It's not quite as democratic an idea as you first think. i have'nt heard the album yet so it could be an awesome album or could be a complete waste of a pound. either way good marketing Discbox?: No CD?: No |
| £1.00 | United Kingdom | Having paid for everyone of their previous albums (twice actually in the case of Pablo Honey as I lost it!) and gig tickets I think I'm entitled to this one at a knock down price. Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Not Answered* |
| £1.00 | United Kingdom | I figured - pay a small amount for the download (while we wait for the physical CD's to be announced) and then pay full price when it's out... Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Yes |
| £1.00 | United Kingdom | A round number, since the bends their last few albums were diminishing returns and not to my taste aside from one or two songs, although i can see why people adore them. I am curious to what they do with this one. Discbox?: No CD?: Not Answered* |
| £1.00 | United Kingdom | It'll get released on CD in the first half of next year - which I will buy - so I'm not paying full price twice. I'll think of this as my deposit! Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Yes |
| £1.00 | Spain | i think its a great idea. i paid 1 pound to check out if i like it or not... if i like it, i'll buy the cd version, and if i really love it, i'll buy the discbox :) Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Undecided |
| £1.00 | United Kingdom | I nearly gave a penny but thought that was a bit wanky. A quid was very cheap without really taking the piss. Discbox?: No CD?: Not Answered* |
| £1.00 | United Kingdom | Radiohead is class. Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Not Answered* |
| £1.00 | United Kingdom | It's the same amount as I'd give a singing tramp. Discbox?: No CD?: Not Answered* |
| £1.00 | France | Too difficult to put a price on something so important... Discbox?: Undecided CD?: Not Answered* |
| £1.00 | United Kingdom | I paid a pound because I'm someone who likes CDs and therefore assume one day I will pay for that so they will get more money off me for their efforts when I by the CD. I don't want to pay them twice. Discbox?: No CD?: Yes |

I think it's a brilliant idea. I chose 50p because I wasn't sure it was real at first and didn't want to lose too much money!
