For
the third year, we entered themilkfactory in the BT Digital
Music Awards in the People’s Choice category, and
you can vote for us. We have been overwhelmed by the response
over the last couple of years, with themilkfactory getting
in the top 500 last year, and considering we were up against
the official sites and fan sites of bands such as Westlife
or Radiohead, no need to say we were extremely proud to
be there at all. To vote, simply click on the DMA logo
on the left hand side of this page, enter your name and
email address and that’s all there is to it. |
