Probably not, but it undermines the principle of the thing.

It doesn't really, if the principle is that we won't buy a specific track because Simon Cowell tells us to.
We'll buy a different track because someone else tells us to. I'm not really sure what we're supposed to be proving any more :(

That more people are easily led by the internet than ITV?
That thought gives me some hope.

More importantly, who still buys music?

I wonder if buying second-hand CDs will be illegal in the future?

I'd rather follow orders from MoogyBoobles than Simon Cowell though.

Simon Cowell will be LOVING it though.
I know I'm being cynical, but he'll STILL be number one, and loads more nans will be buying his record to stop the naughty sweary band win.
He's laughing all the way to the bank, and who fucking cares about the chart anyway? It always has and always will be mainly full of shit music that nans and 14 year olds buy.

She and I have very similar views on many topics.
