This Is Why We Love Idolator [27 March 2007 Edition]

It's been a while since we last ran a "This Is Why We Love..." post. It's not because we don't love anything -- it's just that the mood hasn't quite struck us for a while.

That's why we were so happy to see the following item in Idolator's most recent edition of "On The Shelf", Idolator's Monday preview of this week's new CD releases:

" Various Artists, Now That's What I Call Music 24
The artists: Pop's heavy hitters, plus Lily Allen.
The sound: All the hits you got sick of hearing in Walgreen's four months ago ("My Love," "Irreplaceable").
The first in line: The still-surprisingly high number of people who have never heard of iTunes. "

This DHMBIB feature debuted back in November with a post about Idolator's "Who Charted?" wrap-up of the chart success of the previous installment in the Now! series [which wrap-up made the same "heh! heh! these songs are OLD!!!" and "gosh, some people still don't get their music from iTunes while it's popular??? for realz???" jokes, just sayin' -- but the classics are still the classics -- Ed.]. It came back in January with a look at Idolator's OTS.

Now, we love us some Idolator and "Who Charted?" and "On The Shelf" here at the men's shelter DHMBIB headquarters, but we've decided to rename this feature and run it more frequently, spotlighting some other sites we love as well.
