Radiohead's "In Rainbows" released early at FYE (YMMV)

Afternoon, folks. Dropped by the local FYE last night; surprisingly, they had several copies of Radiohead's "In Rainbows" for sale (street date is January 1st). I'm sure most fans have already downloaded this one...but for those who can't wait until Tuesday for a physical copy, your local FYE might have them out as well. The sale price was a moderately reasonable $12.99, just for the record.

I was at a store here last week and they had it out on the rack which surprised me so i grabbed one and took it to the counter and then i guess it was the manager(the slightly older teen workin there) said it was put out by mistake so i couldnt buy it till the 2nd.Anyway no biggie since i have the download but for sure i will be picking the cd up this week.

All the stores in my area have had it out since last Thursday.

I asked someone at my local FYE why they had it out early, and they said they got a memo from corporate to put it out, as someone else had already broken street date on it.

I suppose, also, that since it's already been available as a download for two months now, it didn't matter all that much anyway.

I'll gladly wait to pick this up for $7.99 on Wednesday. Wish it was coming with the bonus disc though. Hope the artwork/book is nice.

I thought the artwork/booklet was cool. I only ended up paying $8.97 for it at one of the local music stores, anyway, so I got no complaints.

Picked this up today. Funny, I just realized that Radiohead got me to do the one thing that record companies have been trying to get me to do for ages. Pay $16.99 for a CD ($9.00 download; $7.99 physical copy).

Anyone understand how the stickers are supposed to work?

I missed it on new years, but it aired at midnight on Current TV, and has repeated a few times since then. It was great to see them perform nearly the entire album in a live setting. Now I just see that Radiohead posted the entire video on YouTube. Check it out, hope you all enjoy it.
