First of all, that doesn't make much sense because the album case is just like every other album case.

And if by "trying to sound smart" you mean that I am trying to coherently express a complicated opinion, yes I was, but I don't really see what's wrong with that. If I hadn't been trying to sound smart, my post would have probably read "man radiohead sux. their so overrated." But then you couldn't have pegged me as a pretentious elitist, so why are you complaining?
