In Rainbows free, but pirated anyway.

This story made me smile. Not only is Radiohead's new album available completely free of charge from their own site, but it's still been registered half a million times on peer-to-peer networks (though how they get these figures I've no idea).

I 'bought' it for free too. They've had a fair bit of cash out of me, and I know as soon as it's out on CD I'll go buy it, so I don't feel too guilty about not throwing a few quids thier way. I'll probably not download Oasis' and Jamiroquai's forthcoming free to download albums though, but not out of any moral feeling.
