Apple London store to feature live music every month
The Stereophonics played a 9-song set for approximately 250 fans in London's Regent Street Apple Store Tuesday night, according to Macworld UK. An Apple rep who was at the show said this was the first in what is hoped to be monthly live acts that will be recorded and sold through iTunes as the 'Live From London' feature. Fans attending, as well as those turned away, received iTunes gift cards good for 10 free downloads (presumably so that those fans that missed the show could download the tracks and play them at max volume in a retail store of their choice in a futile effort to recreate the event that they missed.)
One interesting note is that Macworld writes, "The completely free event was recorded and will be released on iTunes as part of the second birthday celebration for the iTunes Music Store next week." April 28TH will be the second birthday of the iTMS, I wonder what else Apple has planned for the occasion?
