Boyzone star launches Virgin iPod-athon - www.macworld.co.uk - November 28th 2003


Your ALT-Text here Pop heartthrob Ronan Keating launched Apple's iPod Advent campaign at Virgin's London Oxford Street superstore last night.

The store will now play 28 days of continuous, unrepeated tracks all the way through until Christmas Eve – and all that music will be played from one iPod hosted in the store.

"Self-confessed Apple addict Keating kicked off Christmas festivities four days earlier than the Advent Calendar traditionally starts as a tribute to this year's biggest new star on the music scene – Apple's iPod", said Apple.

Keating said: "My iPod has become my travelling companion – it goes with me absolutely everywhere. The title of my new album, Turn It On is the perfect song to start iPod Advent."
