I didn't realise that - and, if I may say so, it's a bloody ridiculous
idea.

Generally, I only pay 1-99 for cd singles at the most anyway - if they're
more I'll shop around or wait and get them somewhere else. What are they
going to do about bands like Feeder who put their videos on the end of
their singles? Does this count towards the 20 minutes?

Is there anyone we can complain long, loudly and bitterly to?
