shyams Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 Not sure how many outside of UK knew about the 'battle' between the X-Factor and Rage Against The Machine. This was a campaign started by Jon Morter and friends on Facebook to protest against the X-Factor (equivalent to American Idol) single being foisted on the UK public as the Christmas #1. The link is here After a massive viral campaign that rapidly gained momentum, thr RATM song "Killing in the name" made Christmas #1. Click this BBC link. Please feel free to comment. PS: I downloaded 2 copies of the RATM song; and 0 doses of the X-factor syrup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanoi5 Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 Power to the people? A couple of questions, how many copies did last year's winning single sell? What company gets the money from X factor? Which company gets it from RATM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
