Agreed. It may be old fashioned but I'd prefer the physical form instead of downloading. 🤔

Just gave a first listen. I honestly don't remember much apart from bleeps and bloops. I'll have to give it another listen tomorrow 🤣 I know Thom usually dedicates a lot of time into little details and textures.

An artist released an album, who gives a shit how it was released?

He could release the album on microchips implanted in the assholes of howler monkeys and I wouldn't care.

Focus on the album. The method of release is virtually irrelevant.

I don't know. I'm very sheeplike, insofar as I'm very happy there's another Thom Yorke album, and that's what matters to me. And I will add that it's better than either Atoms for Peace and The Eraser.

I'd say it wasn't quite as good as Sea Change, but was his second best album, IMO. Glad someoneelse liked it at least ...

He's attempting bit by bit to give full creative power to the artist, not to the fraking greedy record lables, iTunes, and various other music corporations. If pulled off successfully, this could be another nail in the coffin of overpriced music.

Again, if done right this could be revolutionary. Just because the occasional torrent has a bug hidden in it, torrents can be a massively useful way to reduce the amount of bandwidth needed to sustain a site. It divides the strain between everyone seeding the torrent, not just to the host site. Downloads can be carried out faster, more efficiently, and at a cheaper cost to the originator.

there wasn't another good over-the-top joking way to refer to both Bono and Thom Yorke since Ireland is sovereign but the joke wasn't entirely funny or anything
