What's this about?

HMV is rejigging its download site for an imminent relaunch. As part of this it's going to be turning off downloads on hmv.com meaning you won't be able to access any previous digital purchases after 26 Jan.

Back up now

While this won't effect any downloads you have stored on your mp3 player, it does mean if you were to lose them from your mp3 player you'd not be able to access the back up from hmv.com, so back up now.
