Radiohead Box Set gathers the band's first six studio albums, from Pablo Honey through to Hail to the Thief, along with one live album, all recorded during their years signed to EMI. It came out on 10 December 2007 on Parlophone, and the music is offered on CDs, on a USB stick and as a download.

It sits oddly in the Radiohead story. The band had no input into it, and commentators read it as EMI's response after Radiohead chose not to renew their contract. For listeners, its value is as a single package covering the group's move from guitar-led rock into more electronic territory. It reached number 95 on the Canadian Album Chart.
