Absolutely Flawless
iTunes Netherlands has gone live. Excellent.
I just bought my first song. George Michael's Flawless (Go to the City) [Shapeshifters Remix].
But so far, no luck on finding Clinic, Woven Hand, Dresden Dolls or Hidden Cameras. It's all very middle of the road.
I tried The Undertones'Teenage Kicks (RIP John Peel) but nothing...
Woven Hand and Hidden Cameras COULD be on a CD on their way to you if you ask someone nicely.
*hint - me*
I searched for Teenage Kicks too, Martijn.
/me Asks Gordon very nicely. I'd love to have Woven Hand and Hidden Cameras on a CD.
The iTMS in the US was really much the same when it opened -- I spent most of my time going "Aw, where's X?" rather than "Ooh! I should buy X!" (X referring to any band, not the band of that name, though they do have that now.) It got much more diverse pretty quickly, once the labels took over adding their own content.
Caroline - drop me an email with your address and I'll get it in the post tomorrow!
