(adjective) free or pay-what-you-want, in regards to releasing a product - this term is in direct reference to Radiohead's sixth studio album "In Rainbows" which made headline news for being the first album by a major band to be released in this way.
Max: I got the new Britney Spears album. So lame.
Tim: WHY THE FUCK would you spend money on that?!
Max: Dude, come on. I didn't buy it. She's selling it radiohead style. You know, when you can pay whatever you want to download it, like how Radiohead did with that one album a few years ago... So yeah, I typed in zero dollars and got it for free.
Tim: Yeah Max, this isn't the first time I heard of a radiohead style release. I'm not that innocent! You're always patronizing me.
Max: Oops, I did it again.
