With the Brit Awards taking place in just a few weeks, now is the perfect time for you to pick your personal favourites from the list of nominees. To make it easier for you, leading online retailer, Amazon.co.uk, is offering more than 100 Brit nominee albums for just £6.99!

With albums from all Brit nominees on sale, including newcomers like So Solid Crew, Zero 7 and Tom McRae, as well as established artists such as Robbie Williams, Kylie and Travis, there's something to whet every appetite.

And it's not only last year's albums up for grabs at £6.99, but also a choice selection from artists' back catalogues, including O.K Computer by Radiohead, Travelling Without Moving by Jamiroquai, and Blood on the Tracks by Bob Dylan.

You can also get music DVDs by Brit-nominated artists at 25% off, including Robbie Williams' Live at The Albert, Kylie Minogue Live in Sydney and many, many more.

Paul Zimmerman, general manager of Amazon.co.uk's music shop commented, "We're expecting these CDs to fly out of our distribution centre. This year is one of the strongest ever for Brit nominees, and it's a great opportunity to get albums by some of today's most exciting artists at massive savings".
