An obscure one, but If We Can't Escape My Pretty by IV Thieves not only doesn't appear on the album of the same name, but was released while they were called Nic Armstrong & The Thieves.
Look, all I'm saying is that you could pick a worse day to watch a fun heist film set against the backdrop of a parliamentary vote on a contentious disability welfare bill.

It'll vary between distributors. General rule is that Apple takes 30% of a sale price, Amazon takes 50% (and about a penny per hour for Prime streams 9. But Apple's a much more closed shop, so there may be an additional aggregator in there taking a cut.

Phenomenal. Faultless. Support this stuff when it actually gets made.
"You expect me to talk?"
"No Mr. Bond, I expect you to die."
*proceeds to talk at great length anyway about the fall of the iron curtain*
I find the whole James Bond/Amazon deal funamentally depressing, to be honest.
All I really have to say is that, when you give billionaires creative control, you end up with the Cybertruck.
I'd like it to be known that I correctly completed this #OnlyConnect sequence, described by @vcorenmitchell.bsky.social as "one of the hardest questions I've ever seen," from the first clue alone.
Peak life achievement. Five points to me.

But it's certainly something we'd look at going back and doing if it ever becomes viable.
