Is this a cleverly crafted Radiohead album launch, a protest, or something else?
Radiohead's internet presence is disappearing. As Reddit users noted, their website slowly decreased in opacity until it went entirely blank. It appears that tweets and Facebook posts from their accounts have been steadily disappearing. Update (5/1, 2:00 p.m. ET): There are no longer any tweets or Facebook posts on the band's accounts. Their profile pictures and cover photos have gone completely blank, as well. This comes one day after fans of the band received mysterious flyers with the words "Sing a song of sixpence that goes/Burn the Witch/We know where you live." It's unclear what it is, but something seems to be happening. Update (5/1, 2:28 p.m. ET): Now, it appears Thom Yorke has deleted his tweets. Update (5/1, 3:18 p.m. ET): Their Google+ page has now gone blank.
In the age of Napster, the band has been forward-thinking, so it could be anything.

I presume that an artist or band has released a black album cover. I also presume that a transparent album cover has been released. In the latter case, I would hope that the digital representation of a transparent album cover is a transparent .GIF or .PNG
