I have to agree here. Anyone who hopes to find _everything_ online will
be disappointed. Period. To blame Apple for not having 100% of the
world's music selection online is a bit unfair.

iMS is, in my opinion, the smoothest choice out there for music shopping

online, especially since you're not locked into a subscription model.  
Their selection is still very, very slim for my interests (only around
400,000 songs), but they're adding to it constantly.

Apple had a deal earlier this year where they were talking with
independent labels about getting them into the iMS fold and allowing
them to offer catalogs at a reseller's rate and all that stuff -
basically, fleshing out the catalog with more eclectic choices.

I agree, the selection's pretty weak, but I've found some suprises.  
What do I want?  I want to go to allmusic.com, find an album/song and
download it immediately.  A tall order, but I keep my hopes up :)
