Apple announces iTunes Festival: London
"Situated on The Mall in central London, the ICA is firmly at the heart of British and world culture," the company said when describing the venue. "From exhibiting the likes of Jackson Pollock back in the 1950s, to showcasing the best in underground cinema and modernist debate, it has always been something of a creative playground for artists (the Independent Group met here; Madonna frequented the bookshop)."
Apple has published a preliminary list of performing musicians on its website.
Users will have a chance to win each of the 150 pairs of tickets each night, beginning with the opening performance; however, users will only be able to win once.
Apple said that every single show will be professionally recorded and made available for purchase on iTunes. The company will be offering photographs, festival blogs, videos, podcasts and artist interviews on its website to help promote the event.

Good idea, though, in general.
Articles always have something retarded at the end like "Steve Jobs is the CEO of Apple and founded the company in 1976 with Steve Wos"
Apparently, all writters think were too stupid to visit wiki if we need background info not relevant to the article.
That's what happens when writers just copy entire press releases - because those press releases ALWAYS have that thing at the end.
