NIN new album "Ghosts I-IV"

NIN have just released a new album named "Ghosts I-IV". It has been released under the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 license., It is very interesting to see that bands have started to realize the the whole CD business model is wrong and not ready for the "new" digital world and have started changing it... better late than never.

They offer different ways to get the album:

1. Download a set of samples (basically the first 9 songs) + the artwork in pdf and jpg files. For free.
   
2. Download all the songs + the artwork in pdf and jpg files. For $5.
3. Download all the songs + the artwork in pdf and jpg files + 2 CDs which will be shipped to you in April (I hope it is not an aprils fool joke). For $10.
4. Download all the songs + the artwork in pdf and jpg files + 2 CDs + 1 DVD + 1 BRDVD with lots of extras which will be shipped to you in April (again I hope it is not an aprils fool joke). For $75.
5. The ultra delux limited edition packagge, which I won't even say what it had since it is sold out and it could only cause anger in a NIN fan which could not get one.

Not being an ultra NIN fan (I have to admit I started listening to NIN when I heard "the hands that feeds", the single from "with teeth"), so I went for option #1, listened to the songs, had a look at the artwork and decided to go for option #3. The shipping rate was a bit expensive ($14) but it is still cheap, considering what you get: I was listening to the tracks 30 minutes after I bought the CD and I will still receive a "hard copy" of the album with its amazing artwork.

About the music, I have to say that I am enjoying it a lot (its my third listen to the whole album already), but I guess it might dissapoint some NIN fans. It is basically an instrumental album full of synth "noises", deep and obscure pads and some (not many) distorted guitars.
And about the artwork, it is great... download the free version and have a peek. There are some pictures or Reznor's studio, showing some of his gear, great for synth pr0n lovers.
