Where do you find the new Radiohead album in 24-bit?

I only see the choice between 320 kbps MP3 and WAV here:

As of February 25th

iTunes to Offer 24-bit Audio Files for a Price - Apple iTunes has announced
that will begin offering its music in 24bit format as well as 16bit to
attract customers preferring studio sound quality and uncompressed tunes.
Most high end format pop recordings are made at 24bit, but then downgraded
to 16bit for CD market distribution. Then they are further degraded and
compressed for online streaming services. Several Mac models allows
recording at 24bit, but not iPhones or iPads. Radiohead last week released
its new album on a lossless 24bit file for a higher fee.
