Tiësto wins Dutch BUMA export award 2007

quote:
The board of the Dutch BUMA has announced that Tiësto won the BUMA export award 2007. Tiësto sold the largest volume of CDs, DVDs and other sound carriers outside of The Netherlands, which made him the most successful Dutch artist of the year 2007.

Every year the BUMA export award is assigned to a musical production, recorded on a sound- or video carrier, that sells more copies abroad than comparable items. The counting happens over an uninterrupted period of twelve months and represents albums, single releases and tracks on compilations.

In addition to the export award, Tiësto also won one of the most important prizes in the Dutch music industry last week: the golden harp award. First assigned in 1962, the golden harp is awarded to people that have, in a special way, positively represented Dutch music throughout their career.

The Dutch BUMA export- and golden harp award are represented by 'BUMA Cultuur', an institution that promotes and supports all genres of Dutch music.

I'm pretty sure that most people here don't really care all that much about awards, no matter who wins them.

That's my attitude pretty much. Who cares if the music comes with a name or a trophy attached?
