Limited Edition Paris CD 'hard to find'

I wasn't aware Banksy did remixes but my curiosity is now piqued.

What are your thoughts on this matter- is this actually art of some variety or just someone being a twat? (Banksy's deeds, I'm referring to, not Paris')

I originally thought it could be discussed because it's something happening to a pop record and may have implications for the wider views of/on the pop world. :)

Yeah, the whole thing just seems a bit rubbish, though, in comparison to some of the other stuff Banksy's done. Lazy, really- she's such an easy target and it's not like he's said anything amazingly revolutionary.

The stunt seems lazy and as a statement it is, but I'm kind of impressed about the sheer amount of work that must have gone into actually getting a fake CD into the cases for a very prominent major label release.

I'm now trying to think of the funniest record anyone could have done this to and I've come to the conclusion it's probably Kid A.
