    I do, but the rest of the world doesn't. they also have porcupine tree on
    there. D/l'ed a full album, 7.99 it took 8 minutes and it even gives you
    the artwork. the songs are in AAC format and sound amazing. BTW by years
    end, iTunes will be on PC. Apple has said they are doing this. What a
    move, iTunes is probably the best software program I have ever used.

    You don't already have all the DT songs?

    I LOVE having the real thing (i.e., a CD) in my hands. This new deal with
    Apple's iTunes doesn't excite me in the least. If the record companies have
    deemed a song to be worth $.99, how about releasing singles again? Like
    someone said on another mailing list I'm in: "Gee, just like 45s when I was
    a kid. Wait, where's the B-side and picture sleeve? How can I hug a
    download?"

    I know - every song on an album is available, not just the singles. Still.

    There's one more thing I just have to get out of my system about the Genius story and lyrics. There's a part of the story where King McChaos is visited by an old friend (Wild Tribe), and Wild Tribe keeps repeating how nice it is to spend time with one of his best friends (or the other way around, can't remember right now). The point is that supposedly they're very good friends. Then, after that, Wild Tribe finds out about what's been going on with Genius bla bla bla, and then (here comes the part I just can't stand) he sings that McChaos will pay for what he's done, that he won't get away with that. But aren't they very good friends??????? Is it even possible that one of your best friends would say "you will pay for what you've done" and report you to the authorities without even asking you or telling you about the situation that startled him? That's so incredibly silly that it irritates me. It's practically unbearable for me to listen to such a stupidity. And what t!
    he hell is up with the "authorities" taking McChaos' baby son with them and sending him wherever they sent him? What does the baby boy have to do with all the crap happening with Genius? What kind of logic is there in that? I think Liverani should let some of the people collaborating with him help him with the lyrics next time around, because record companies should not allow lyrics like those to be released. Thank you and goodnight.

    No, I'm still missing WDADU (It's VERY hard to get in Argentina)

    Plus all the B sides I don't have, though you can get those off the
    Internet if you look well enough.

    Speakin of B-sides, is there any comprehensive list of rare DT songs
    that CAN be found around? (I know there is one in the FAQ, but most
    of those songs never get mentioned anywhere so I assume they are not
    in circulation anymore)
