:: Trust Me I'M A Thief Weblog Launched
The Trust Me I'M A Thief website has launched it's own weblog / news service. The weblog will contain stories relating to issues surrounding digital music / media matters. It will not contain any news relating to the label or artists, these will be kept on the news section of the site and relayed in the same manner you have been accustomed to. To view the weblog, just clink the 'Launch Log' button on the left of the news page and wait for the headlines to load. If there is a particular story grabs your attention, just click the headline and it will send you to the appropriate site page containing the piece where you can read the story in full. Simply use the back button of your browser to bring you back to the main page of the weblog. I hope you find it a useful resource. We will endeavor to update every day or two.

:: TMIAT Irish Times Magazine Piece.
Thanks to Nicoline Greer who wrote the following nice words about Trust Me I'm A Thief in The Irish Times Magazine last Saturday:
STOP THIEF
When you're charged more than €20 for CD's that cost half that in other countries, it can be hard to feel that the music industry has your best interests at heart. One section that is inviting our faith, however, is Trust Me I'm A Thief, an Irish record label and website that will let you download its releases for just €7.95. (It has also just been named best online digital music service at the Digital Media Awards beating off Eircom Net, Today FM and CD Wow!) In the four months since its launch, Trust Me I'm A Thief's releases of Jape's The Monkeys In The Zoo Have More Fun Than Me and The Redneck Manifesto's I Am Brazil have proved that independent music is not drowning in a sea of multinationals.
