You're all gonna think I'm mad, but I prefer the ITN countdown music to News 24's. It doesn't look as good, however, but with the constant changes on ITN, it's days are probably numbered anyway!

Does anyone else agree that ITN's music is really good? (and I don't care if you hate it, so save the negative comments please!)

There's a countdown on ITNNC? I've never heard it.

Yeah, I like the ITNNC music too. It's funky.

The ITN countdown is good actually, I think it has been about since the launch of the channel, and unless they change their idents I expect it will remain.
Incidentally, I thought ITN looked better when it launched than it does now, or in its second look!

Well, not really a countdown, but they have the music at the top of the hour, with the various means of recieving ITN 'emerging' from the centre of the screen. Again, not brilliant graphics, but great music.

Well you wont see it because you will most likely be watching News24.
It isn't really a countdown, more of a sort of strange long trailer that is played until the top of the hour.

Yeh, I like the ITN News Channel music too, I wish ITN would do something like that to the ITV News music. I also like the arrows.

Any chance of anyone capturing this obviously *fantastic* music, and posting a link to the file?

Thanks
