What you're about to read is a collection of pointers to some of the music I've discovered on the iTunes Music Store, music I like enough that I want to share it. If you're an iPod owner and an iTunes fan (and if you aren't, what are you doing here?), maybe you'll find something new. Click on any of the CD covers to bounce over to the store and sample a few tracks. And then maybe stop by my other blog for a few well chosen words (and maybe a random snark or two).RSS feed

Television's Greatest Hits: 70s & 80s
Jeez, what a rip!

What's he ranting about?, I hear you cry. Okay, I don't actually hear that. And even if I did, and could, it's at least a few days between when I write this stuff and anybody sees it. So unless I have a portal through time (and judging by the performance of my stock portfolio, I don't), I couldn't possibly be hearing you say much of anything. But I digress.

I'm a child of television. So when I encountered the first of these Television's Greatest Hits CDs, I was in heaven. And now they're here on the iTMS. But not in a good way. 'Cause you see, what I probably paid fourteen or fifteen dollars for back in the mists of early CDdom (or CDness, if you prefer) isn't what you get for $11.99. No, this album is a tiny fraction of the original, with a mere eighteen of the original disc's sixty-five (count 'em!) tracks.

Do you still wonder at my rantitude? I'm thinking not. (Which, contrary to stories I've heard, were not Rene Descartes' last words. Although they should have been.)
