TOWNSHEND SLAMS DOWNLOADS

THE WHO star PETE TOWNSHEND has criticised the digital music industry for alienating fans - labelling the process of internet downloading "heartless".
Although the rocker admits that the way companies such as iTunes have capitalised on digital downloads is very clever, he much prefers the old fashioned system of buying a CD from a music shop.
He says, "iTunes simply doesn't have heart. It is software attached to a bank, nothing more, nothing less. Brilliant, but heartless."
