Name your price for the latest Radiohead album

How much would you pay for the new album by one of the world’s most critically acclaimed rock bands? Radiohead are asking fans to put their own price on the group’s long-awaited new release.

The lack of a fair-priced alternative to illegal downloading has been a common complaint since downloading began to annihilate the recorded music market. Now fans can decide for the first time what to pay, or whether to pay anything at all for the album.

The innovative band, who have sold about 20 million albums and singles, shocked the industry by announcing that their seventh album would be released solely through their website.

In Rainbows, a ten-track album, will be released as a digital download next Wednesday. Fans who tried to pre-order the download were told that they could name their own price.
