I am old enough to remember the first BandAid album. All the big UK 80's stars, with all thei their hair and stretched t-shirts singing "Do they know it's Christmas time at all", with a video of the song to boot that got played what seemed like every hour on MTV. Well, UK popsters still release a BandAid album every year and the effort raises piles of cash for needy folks each year. There's just one little thing- they want to sell the singles for more than 79pence through online, digital music stores. The desired price is about 1.49 pounds, and Apple UK won't budge their standard pricing to release the single. So no BandAid for iTunes in the UK, while every other download store carries the track. Guess someone at Apple decided that 79pence was te future price for music, even if that music is raising money for charity.
