April 2012 Downloads
Hard to compile this month accurately.I have a folder that stuff gets dumped into when I am downloading faster than listening. When I eventually add it to iTunes is when it gets a date. This month I completed my self-imposed task of listening to everything in my iTunes library at least once (it took 14 months or so), and had an intensive weekend of tagging up stuff in my dump folder and adding it to iTunes. Which means a bucketload of free netlabel albums and compilations are dated this month in my library. So I didnt include all of those and am in some cases unclear whether something was downloaded this month. Anyway

great choice. mostly taste is subjective, but this is the greatest album ever made -- proven by science.

I actually have not seen the movie, but have been meaning to.
