iMixes used as protest against lack of indenpedent artists

By Alberto Escarlate

We had mentioned during iTunes UK launch that
users were upset because most independent artists wouldn't be included in the catalog. Now some users are using
the playlist-sharing feature to protest against the lack of indies by creating iMixes with titles like "iTunes needs
indies!". As you would guess these protest lists are climbing up the iMix charts (in the pic above the IMix got 4½
stars.)

I'm sure it will be a matter of time until Apple brings the indies in. I mean, if Steve Jobs really want to get
serious in the European market.
