www.nin.com where's da catch? [/b]As far as I know there isn't one! You have to email them, you get get sent a code and a link. Once you click on the link you get a choice of formats to download the album, all minus DRM. The whole process took me about 5 minutes.
I guess the catch is that you end up on a mailing list, but the NIN site does state that your address will not be used for spam.
I think the album has a lot to do with 'profile-raising' now that Reznor is completely independent, and no longer signed to a label.
I've not listened to NIN since 'Downward Spiral' so this was a nice suprise - it's quite electronic and goes instrumental for most of the second half - like 'Low' or 'Heroes' does; not that I'm comparing it to those albums in any way.
