His new album Tomorrow's Modern Boxes is released through a new pay-torrent - which in itself can seem quite innovative. But the fact of the matter is that the torrent release costs $6 and is mp3 only - and the only way to get lossless format is to buy a vinyl, where a FLAC/WAV-download is included.
I think it's a bit hypocritical to be on the forefront of releasing music digitally, like Thom York is and has been with Radiohead, and then withholding the "good stuff" with a $30 pricetag - especially for those people who doesn't own a turntable.
Personally I do own a turntable, but I'm done with investing in vinyls.

Bought the vinyl and I've got absolutely no problem that you don't get the other formats with the digital release..vinyl has always been better than any other format. You want quality: you pay, simple as that.

I just want to be able to buy a FLAC-only release - I would be happy paying twice as much as the mp3.
So you're saying that if you don't own a record-player, you have to buy one in order to get a lossless quality recording for your computer?
