HMV have burned the In Rainbows album to CD, put a cheap cover on it and are selling it for £9.95

Huh? Are you sure they haven't bought them from XL to sell in their shops?

 

[DexterTCN]

Yup. Quizzed them on it myself. The bit in quotes was the answer I got.

No copyright or TM on the cover, distribution, date of release, audio details, track length etc. Just a crappy little cover.

Don't know who XL is, though.

 

[cliche guevara]

XL is the record label that they've released the album on CD through. For people that don't have t'intenets.

Really?

I am gonna tell them!

 

[Firky]

Done!

 

[Firky]

Haha I got an email off them

Gosh that sounds dodgy!!

Though the XL one does have a card cover.

Where's this HMV ?

Thanks for that XXXX

So which HMV was it, Dexter?

 

[cliche guevara]

I seriously doubt that HMV would be selling copied CDs. The album comes in a thin paper style case, and has nothing on the front, and just the tracklsiting on the back. Perhaps Dexter just assumed that it was a copy because of the minimal packaging, coupled with not knowing that it was being physically released through XL?

Thom Yorke was interviewed on the Today programme earlier in the week - you can listen to it here if you're interested

Fuck me In Rainbows is great! So much better than Hail, and soaring up there with Kid A for me. Brilliant album!

Amazing you can give you album away for free download and still sell enough to reach no 1 in the album charts. That is to remember none of there digital sales count for album sales.
