Rage Against X-Factor. Killing In The Name of for UK Xmas #1
Posted by DaveEllis
Untrue, Amazon purchases do count.
did you see my edit?
there are a few versions of it on amazon, and people were saying just the 29p version won't count, only those above 40p would count. but it seems that even the 29p one will count.

exactly.
the f/b group is just a few hundred short of 900,000! now if only every single one of them bought a copy we'd have it sewn up no trouble...
bought the 29p copy off amazon, can't install the Nokia player though, keeps failing. tried it a few times but it's not installing, others are having that problem too, they've written it on the f/b page wall.

If that turns out to be the case, Sunday will certainly be a dark day for music.
Like Muks says, this will have been about people talking the talk and joining the Facebook group but not walking the walk and actually buying the download.

Dave, post a rousing speech on the Facebook page and see if you can whip the apathetic masses into action. 
I know I started off by saying I didn't care who got No.1, but I love a good story and this is an epic in the making.

I'm not even part of the facebook group, partly because I'm not even part of facebook. But I bought the rage single 3 times, once each from itunes, amazon and play. Epic fail on the part of facebookers tbh :P
But I always expected the sheer size of cringeworth to steal the march.

Bought my copy!
We need more, Dave is there a way to message all those lazy peeps on facebook? :P
Just downloaded through the Nokia player, thanks for the tip-off.
Just to confirm, purchases from anywhere in the world still count, as long as they are made through the UK Nokia store?

just bought it off HMV, although it said i downloaded it when i haven't.
and bought it off 7Digital, paid by Paypal which is handy.
and off TuneTribe, also by Paypal.
and Tesco,
and We7 (had to create an account and top-up a minimum of £5 to my account before i can download anything, but it's a small price to pay for such a worthy cause!).
will try the Nokia one again later.
so i've bought it 7 times so far, everyone else do the same!
on the f/b wall there are links to each of the places i've just bought from.

Yes! managed to do the Nokia thing, although i can't find it on my computer anywhere, but i can play it on the OviPlayer. so that's 8 for me.
and the man who started this whole thing is going to be talking to Jo Whiley on Radio 1 sometime in the next couple of hours (her show is 1-4pm).

bought 2 live versions, 1 from amazon, the other free from Nokia, so i'm up to 10 copies.
this site allegedly has live tracking for downloads: Click
it will be a real sad state of affairs if after all this effort, we fail to get no.1. it will just highlight how powerful things like xfactor are, and how difficult it is to overthrow it.
