Nice one from Banksy: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/5310416.stm

"A spokesperson for Virgin said [..] it's a very good stunt."

Probably will ultimately help Paris Hilton's sales too - come on, everyone will be trying to buy it in the hope of getting a Banksy-ed version.

which certainly explains why copies are going for £400 on ebay :)

Of course-- how could Bansky's version not be better?

Isn't it fairly easy to tell the Banksy version form the original?

Only if you've seen the copies floating around the internet, and/or have a clue - both of which are not guaranteed in the wider populace.
Plus, free publicity for her CD launch, which I for one would never have heard about either.
Not that I'll buy it, but still..

Who is sucker enough to buy it I wonder?
