In Rainbows - how much did I pay?

In Rainbows came out. I waited until I had the time to really listen to it, it happened today, I am ill and I took a day off work. What a perfect time, uh?

So I place my order:

And confirm it:

In two minutes I got my album, and my money went directly to Thom, Jonny, Colin, Ed, and Phil. plus an 80 eurocent for commission. Not too bad.

I won't tell you how much I paid for it. But I did. And I'm glad. It's been quite some time since I actually bought an album, I used to make some donations to a few Jamendo artists, but this is different.

So, try to guess: how much did I pay for In Rainbows? I'll give you a hint, it's not a random number, but a very significant one in the Radiohead context. ^_^

You got it. 2 + 2 = 5, and

You got it. 2 + 2 = 5, and in the currency of George Orwell's 1984 and Radiohead's homeland.

Bravo. ^_^

I'm too cool to be true...no no seriously, I know only two songs by Radiohead and 2+2=5 is not one of them, I'm too cool for this fuc*ing world... :oD
