I thought that article was fake because of the name of the link, guess not.

I'm not really sure why they aren't releasing it via FLAC(instead of WAV). I suppose their reasoning is higher compatibility.

Also, why would anyone buy the WAV version of the newspaper version for $5 more? They can just rip the CD(or vinyl) themselves when they get the physical copy.

I added the prices to my previous post about the releases.

Artwork is decent but doesn't feel like Radiohead.

that's fitting. somewhere I read that Greenwood(I think) said it's unlike anything they've done before.
