It's definitely real. I hope they sell buckets of copies - I'd wager most people will pay between $5-$10 for their copies out of appreciation/admiration for the band. Even at $0 a download, it costs Radiohead nothing in terms of "production." And then, that many more people will come see them on the road where the real money can be found.

I also hope they do well with this. Partially because they're radiohead and partially because I actually think they are doing what a lot of artists will be doing soon. You provide a digital download for the masses and a high quality special hardcopy for those who like something in there hands.

My problem is that I want the Discbox (two records, two discs, and the download), but don't have a credit card.. so I'll have to sort that out. 80$ though, sheesh.
