alerts when an artist releases a new album

[davemchine]

I've setup about 22 alerts within iTunes but I never actually get them. I've missed out on a few albums because of this. So my question is, can I fix the alerts within iTunes or is there a better utility for receiving alerts when an artist releases a new album? Thanks.

ps. here is what the alerts screen looks like from within iTunes.

This is what I had used in the past. Seemed to work fairly well. I no longer use it, though, b/c I find out via other sources (not email alerts) like Twitter, Spotify, RSS feeds, etc.

The kids, these days, refer to that as when it "drops" or so I am told.

I still have 8-tracks in the basement, so I am out of the loop!

I thought that was retro terminology dating back to the fifties or sixties?

Thanks Pinkoos, that website seems to work very well. I'm already finding new albums by my favorite artists.

Cool. I think I unsubscribed b/c they kept sending me all the classical music releases (there are tons) and I couldn't figure out a way to filter that out.
