Music is broken

Music in Britain is totally broken, and it’s all iTunes’ fault. Because each download of an individual track counts as a ‘single’ purchase, it counts towards the singles chart (but only if the tracks are purchased individually rather than as the whole album), every single track off the new Arctic Cockmonkeys album looks set to enter at least the top 75 this week. More at The Grauniad.

I hope you’re all thoroughly ashamed of yourselves, people of Britain. You’ve killed music. Well done.
