Beck
Beck releases his latest full-length (The Information) with a very interesting cover twist. The 1st batch of pressings come with some sort of sticker set, and an invitation to design your own cover, and upload the results (via a photograph I assume). The winning design(s) will be featured as the cover for the 2nd pressing of the album. Beck also did something similar with the isolated Pro Tools tracks for his music: he posted the individual bed tracks for download, and invited his fans to remix his music.
