aye that was it. I joined britannia for 5 minutes. You were enticed in with 5 albums for 99p then you had to pay full price + postage. Also had to remember to decline the editors choice or they'd send you that and charge every month The club was a good idea if you lived a million miles from a record shop but otherwise bollocks

I'm pretty sure that Little Sue is right about the name. They are they BPI awards but the 'Brits' monica came from the original sponsorship by Britannia.

yeah i misunderstood what she meant. I thought she was saying that the whole thing was started by a mail order company rather than the record industry! I'm a little bit simple sometimes

Radiohead are one of the biggest bands in the world, and have never had a brit award. That says everything doesn't it? Actually they're probably the biggest band in the world never to have had one. The Manics don't need a brit, although maybe they do for PFAYM because that is what they were aiming for in the end wasn't it.
