I understand, making your fans "work" to listen to music is fine. I guess you could call it art. But RH artistic decision to follow this course has lead them to relative obscurity, which is unfortunate because they still have the talent to have both artistic and commercial success. Few avante garde records such as Kid A have sold such numbers, and I'm sure Thom and the boys were laughing all the way to the bank, however it led them into a musical deadend. Like everyone else, I'm eagerly anticipating they're next cd...if there will be one?

I completly agree, I really can't see Radiohead realeasing a greatest hits record, they're just not the kind of band that should, really...

I would have thought a B Sides or covers album would be the obvious choice to release for a Radiohead compilation.

They don't have any control over whether this record gets put out. They recently left EMI which is why they were able to self-release In Rainbows. EMI wants to capitalize on the success of In Rainbows, but Radiohead did not choose them to release the physical copy of the disk.

So they're releasing a greatest hits CD against the band's wishes. They will not be doing any press for it or selling it on their tour.
