| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | worth every penny Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | The discbox is the future. People will pay extra for a great 'must have' quality release rather than the 4 thin-page CD in a flimsy jewel case. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | if i was only buying the download, i think £5 is a fair price for the album. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | cannot wait till it comes out !! Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Discbox. Is everyone on here aware that if they buy the discbox, they get the download for free? The more I think about this marketing model, the better it seems. All the cheap scrotes paying pennies for it are the kind of people who'd nick the album off a mate anyway - so they lose zero sales. And proper fans know the money they do decide to pay goes to the band. Be absolutely fascinating to find out how much the 'Head make from this. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Genius idea. They'll probably make more than most bands who put their album out through a label, despite thousands of people taking the piss by paying nothing for it. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Don't hate the media - BE the media! That's what Radiohead are doing! Joe Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Hello sir, I am a happy camper. Regards, Baz Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | great idea. moving the industry forward. i hope music fans are honest. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | It's not a new idea - Jonah Matranga has let people choose their price on his site for a long time: He's not as big as Radiohead, though, so naturally not many people realise. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | They deserve the world. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Best band in the world right now by far, and one of the greatest of all time. This Radiohead album is priceless. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Undecided |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | This could be a work of utter genius - the (effectively) free download and then cash up front PRE-ORDER for the physical version takes the financial burden out of distribution, one of the reasons bands need record companies. Now all we need to figure out is how bands who haven't already had 10 years of record company marketing money can pull this stunt too. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Genius idea this was, was well happy to shell out 40 quid on this. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | I really like having a hard-copy of the music on a CD... and as you don't see a Radiohead album every year, well I thought I'd treat myself and get the discbox. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Worth every penny. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | I love Radiohead so happily paid for the box set. I like the idea of choosing how much to pay. If you could back pay after hearing it, that would be a great solution. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: No |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Probably wouldn't have ordered the box had it not included a vinyl version. I like new technology well enough but nothing beats an old fashioned elpee, either on sound quality or as a tactile, collectible, wantable object. I'm about halfway between being enraptured and irritated by Radiohead's music, but I've always admired the way they go about the business of interraction with their fans. I hope more people follow suit, though I recognise that experiments of this type can only be undertaken successfully (and by that I mean profitably - there's nothing very 21st century or new media about artists living in penury) by people with large extant fan bases. It's a great idea, but it's still not The Answer some people insist on believing exists. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: No |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Discbox. Time has suddenly become so slow. Come on 10th! Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Anyone who doesn't pay for the time and effort put in by the band is a tight-fisted w@nker. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | Box Set.. Only Choice... Yarp! Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Yes |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | still a bargain. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
| £40.00 | United Kingdom | I would have happily paid more for than £40 for the Discbox. I hope they pull it soon so that all the 'I paid nothing as I reserve the right to hear it before shelling out for the discbox' cannot get their hands on it. Discbox?: Not applicable - I already ordered the discbox CD?: Not Answered* |
