Another awards ceremony? Oh yes. The first ever Interactive Music Awards, which honours artists for their online activity, took place in the BT Tower yesterday. It was something of a pop fest - Westlife won the People's Choice award, Blue got artist of the year and Darius won best pop artist.
Despite the pop winners, it was Mr Chuck D, a longtime supporter of using the net for music distribution, who presented the awards.
Other winners at the awards included Supergrass, who won in the best rock/indie artist category, The Streets who picked up best urban/ dance artist, and BMG who won best label. Shazam, the service which can recognise tracks over your mobile phone, picked up a best innovation awards.
