Ignition is the cumulation of several artist promotional efforts that Microsoft has offered during the past year. Following the Zune launch, Microsoft began sponsoring artists’ tours. Xbox Live offers an Artist of the Month program that includes free music video downloads, interviews and monthly “Game With Fame” sessions where gamers can compete online with artists. It was an exclusive partnership with Epic Records until March.
