The Residents in the booklet for Is Anybody Out There?

***2009*** was most notable as the year The Residents debuted their RSD webstore. The webstore would allow The Residents to release any material they wished, without the need to press CDs or to go through a record label. As a result, 2009 featured 14 different digital releases.
