The place where everyone hangs out, chats, gossips, and argues

Don't think this has been mentioned yet, had an article about this up for a week or so on my website..

A new chart show is coming to Radio 1 in the next few weeks - the download chart.

The chart will air every Wednesday night at 6.00pm on Scott's show from September.

"As we all know, downloading is the most significant development in the music industry since the CD. We are well on track to a time when this is one of the main ways our young audience will buy their new music," said Andy Parfitt, Controller of Radio 1.

"It is absolutely right therefore that we should pioneer with this chart - to push forward legal downloading and tell the nation what the most popular tracks are." Scott is excited about the show, although he has a poor knowledge of technology: "'Despite still finding it hard to get to grips with my iPod, I too, know that downloading tracks is the way forward so I am glad that Radio 1 is going to broadcast the chart".

The Download Chart kicks off on the 1st September at 6.00pm on Scott's afternoon show.

Least this will make his shows a little more interesting and busier. Doesn't sound very promising for those hoping Sara Cox will return to the slot... What do you think?

Thought the annoying gobby one had decided NOT to return now? or was I misinformed on that one, I hope not coz I prefer Mills' show to Cox's.
