Apple Thoughts: Independent Music Recognized by iTunes

"Apple has added an Indie Spotlight section to the iTunes Store, giving independent music its own breathing space on the store's virtual shelves."

Long overdue in my opinion, since I'm a big fan of independents. There are several sections that give information on touring bands, new releases and something called "heavy rotation." I'm assuming its music that is being played a lot but not clear yet as to how they get the data on that. There is a wide variety of music listed, sure to have at least one band for everyone no?
