They don't have any control over whether this record gets put out. They recently left EMI which is why they were able to self-release In Rainbows. EMI wants to capitalize on the success of In Rainbows, but Radiohead did not choose them to release the physical copy of the disk.

So they're releasing a greatest hits CD against the band's wishes. They will not be doing any press for it or selling it on their tour.
