iTunes, I am Your Willing Slave. Kinda.
I absolutely adore iTunes. In some ways, that is. Sure, it's rife with commercial pop, but if you stick with it, you can actually find some great music on it. So far, I've found tracks from Frank Black, Stereophonics, and Cake. And the Cake track I stumbled on by checking out those 'Celebrity' lists. Ben Folds, you've got great taste in music. Same goes for you, Moby. And, I'm totally cool with the dollar a pop for a track. This saves me the headache of buying a $12.99-$16.99 CD when I'm only looking for a song or two from it.
Although, any database lacking Radiohead is of the bad. Here, I was thinking I'd be able to find some of their much hallowed B-sides from the OK Computer sessions. Alas, Radiohead's not on iTunes. Likewise are the Wrens. Here's hoping that this matter is rectified sooner than later.
Another drawback is the severe lack of indie music. But, I guess that's going to be the case since I'm sure there's a fee to place music on iTunes. Oh well. Guess this gives me a reason to still visit the record store for those treasured gems. Although, trying to find the new Clearlake CD has been nigh impossible.
So, in conclusion, if you're like me and ache to hear Where is Your Mind from the Pixies, you'll find it on iTunes. You just have to be patient with it. However, if you're into whatever's on the radio nowadays, say hello to your new life partner. S/he'll be your bestest friend in the whole wide world. And then some.
