House Of Cards (great bass reverb use here) All I Need (VERY Kid-A'ish) Weird Fishes Reckoner I really wish Radiohead would do more epic songs like Polyethylene which seem to make it onto EP's but are always omitted from LP's. Polyethylene is by far my favorite RadioHead tune and I can't think of a more 'epic' song.

It's not as if they kept secret that they were releasing a CD version after; they made a press release back almost 2 weeks ago. Those who wanted to download it could the day it came out on Oct 10th, you could pay $1000000 you could pay $0. There were going to be two more releases, a special box set available in December which includes Vinyl, and 2 CD's; and a dedicated CD release early in 08'. I paid $0 for the download as I knew I wouldn't enjoy an MP3 version of the album as much as a CD. I know many people who don't buy CD's and liked the idea of an MP3 download; they paid money. They screwed nobody. You screwed yourself.
