iTunes Store in Australia - finally!

# Posted by Joel Dixon at 01/11/2005 02:40:00

Just a few days ago, Apple finally opened their iTunes store for us Australians (albiet without offerings from Sony BMG).

I must say I'm very happy with this - and the timing is excellent. I'm also extremely relieved that I never ended up buying an iPod Nano like I had wanted, due to the new iPod's video capability that I would have missed out on.

I'm only buying songs as I think of them (and I had a quick browse through the Triple J Hottest 100 list for suggestions). Here's what I've purchased so far:

Video
Luxo Jr. (Pixar's first film produced)

Music
Asshole - Denis Leary
Be Yourself - Audioslave
Believe - Lenny Kravitz
Blue Monday - Orgy
Deeper Water - Deadstar
Easy - Faith No More
Laura - Scissor Sisters
Longview - Green Day
Music Sounds Better With You - Stardust
Not The Same - Bodyjar
Plush - Stone Temple Pilots
Sour Girl - Stone Temple Pilots
Take Your Mama - Scissor Sisters
Teardrop - Massive Attack
When I Come Around - Green Day
Your Woman - White Town

I'm really hanging out for Sony BMG to get on board though - so I can finally purchase Outkast's Bombs over Baghdad.

'Bombs over Baghdad' is a mighty sweet track.

Welcome Mr. No Name - welcome to my site.

You wouldn't happen to be a fan of Christopher Walken would you?

Well - welcome back. The new blog's added to my feed list. Was this new one started by Beer? If so, does that mean it won't be deleted without notice soon
