I did. I paid 4 weird looking “L”s for it. My student employee “bought” it too. He paid zero weird looking “L”s for it. I have also been sent a link to download it from a couple of different people. It is an interesting idea and a pretty good album. I need to give it a few more listens before I form my official opinion on it.

Evidently you’re not the only one paying 4 pounds.
Check out these numbers from the “virtual charts”: bigger than the Beatles, eh.

“Besides the estimated 1.2 millions copies sold for about another estimated average of £2.50 to £4 ($5-$8)… we do have some interesting numbers coming from Last.fm. The website tracks the songs played on everyone’s computers (and even iPods) and Radiohead topped all of the website’s charts.

‘15 Step’, opening track of ‘In Rainbows’ topped the charts of the week ending on October 14th, which means that ‘15 Step’ was played 263,169 times by 67,122 unique listeners in 4 days since the release on October 10th. To put that in perspective, Kayne West’s ‘Stronger’ topped the list the (full!) week before with 57,904 plays by 22,587 unique listeners. Radiohead’s Karma Police was number three that week with 23,992 plays (now 16,119). All in all Radiohead have took over the top artists spot from The Beatles with a total of 118,836 people playing 3,308,175 Radiohead tracks in the past week.”
