Hi Reed, I buy most of my music, whether MP3 or CD, from amazon.com. I can't say for sure if they are accessible to you in Canada, but I would be surprised if they weren't. HTH Norma

RE: buying music
Even some of the so called newer stuff is missing on I Toons anyways. There's also the problem of the version of the same song you want may not be there. This happened to me with Chris Brown's Excuse me Miss. They didn't have the version I wanted. The don't appear to have the version of Umbrella I want either. Though I'll check again. I want the radio version with out JZ. I don't like his thing at the beginning of that song. Idid get lucky with Buttons though. Ah no Snoop Dog.

RE: buying music
While we're on this subject, I was wondering if you guys know of sites where you can still hear samples of music that you may be interested in buying? I know of a place in Nashville, Tennessee (Ernest Tubb Recordshop) they have a vast number of stuff (they specialize in country) but I think you can get other genres as well) anyhow, I have seen CDs and think My! Those titles sound good, but are they the original recordings? Hate to buy something, only to find that it's a redone version of the tune!
