BB reader Daniel says,

Radiohead has just announced the details for their new album, In Rainbows.

They're only selling it through their website (at least for now), and for the digital download version, they're letting listeners pick their own price for the album - it's literally a donation-based product.

Obviously this is sparking confusion among many, but the only help the website provides are the words "It's up to you."

Link, album's out October 10.

Disclaimer: I AM THE HUGEST RADIOHEAD FAN ON THE PLANET. This is such big news! I just bought my copy (download), though there was some wonky html on the purchase confirmation screen indicating some code glurbles going on at the online store -- not sure if the purchase took. Perhaps the shop's just overloaded right now, announcement just went live.

No details on the download file format, but if this is all DRM-free MP3s I'm gonna asplode in ecstatic fan-rapture.
