In the midst of squabbles between major music labels and Apple's iTunes Store, Radiohead is allowing listeners to set their own price for downloading In Rainbows, due next week in digital form.
No indication is given of the file format that will be used, or if any DRM measures are attached once the album has been downloaded.
