iTunes kills the re-release

Last night the BBC were reporting that several "classic" (more than 10 years old) Christmas songs were charting thanks to sales through various download sites and the change in the rules regarding chart entry.

To what extent does this kill the record company concept of re-releasing the same songs every other year for the Christmas season?

Xmas No2

Any song reaching Xmas No1 from any era has to be better than the X factor twats knee jerking their hyped path to the top of the charts, surely?

Run Rudolph

It does mean that Keith Richards' rather fine version of "Run Rudolph Run" is finally available again.
