Release



Radiohead's record contract with EMI ended in 2003 with the release of their sixth album, Hail to the Thief. EMI hoped to negotiate a new contract for their seventh album, In Rainbows (2007), but Radiohead instead self-released it on their website and signed to XL Recordings for the retail release.
EMI announced the Radiohead box set days after Radiohead signed to XL, and released it in the same week as the special edition of In Rainbows. Radiohead had no input into the release and were reportedly "incensed". Commentators including the Guardian saw the box set as retaliation for the band choosing not to sign a new contract with EMI. According to a report on Boing Boing, EMI had threatened to release the box set on the same date as the special edition of In Rainbows if Radiohead did not license the physical release to them. A spokesperson for EMI denied this and said that "Radiohead were kept fully updated of our plans". The EMI owner, Guy Hands, defended the releases as necessary to boost EMI's revenues, and said that "we don't have a huge amount of reasons to be nice [to Radiohead]".
The box set was promoted on Google Ads with an advert reading: "Radiohead – New album In Rainbows now available as boxset". The advert led to an EMI site selling the box set, which does not include In Rainbows. EMI removed the advert, saying it was a "data source glitch". A spokesperson for Radiohead said they accepted the advert was a genuine error.
