Bum Rush The Charts

An interesting idea, the website bumrushthecharts.blogspot.com is urging people with I-Tunes accounts to purchase an indie single today and push it to #1 on the charts as a 'stick it to the record industry' gesture.

How the band is selected is beyond me, and isn't the fact that your music on I-Tunes (and therefore DRM infected) imply that you have given in to the man, and how is it possible to 'Stick it to the man' by buying music on his website???

I would probably dig deeper before participating, to make sure you aren't getting sucked into a very clever marketing scheme, but I don't have an I-Suck account, so I'm not going to fret about it. If you are interested in proving that a bunch of people can send an indie single to #1, and if you think that will somehow make the record industry jealous, head over to the following link and show your support.
