In a dose of semi-tech related news (which will be of particular interest to music fans and UK-based readers) Apple has announced the line-up for its iTunes Festival in London this coming September.
The 60-plus acts slated to take part in the month-long string of gigs at The Roundhouse include Justin Timberlake, Thirty Seconds to Mars, Jack Johnson and Jessie J.
The festival is made up of a series of performances that take place every night during September at the famous London location. The event is streamed free to iOS devices worldwide through a dedicated app, and Apple TVs.
Importantly, tickets are not available via public sale. Instead, they are given away through local competitions run across a series of countries, including US, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Europe, Japan and Mexico to name but a few.
