Not sure how many outside of UK knew about the 'battle' between the X-Factor and Rage Against The Machine.
This was a campaign started by Jon Morter and friends on Facebook to protest against the X-Factor (equivalent to American Idol) single being foisted on the UK public as the Christmas #1. The link is here
After a massive viral campaign that rapidly gained momentum, thr RATM song "Killing in the name" made Christmas #1. Click this BBC link. Please feel free to comment.
PS: I downloaded 2 copies of the RATM song; and 0 doses of the X-factor syrup.

Power to the people?
A couple of questions, how many copies did last year's winning single sell? What company gets the money from X factor? Which company gets it from RATM?
