iTunes and Yahoo music rant... - stuckatcuse - 10-24-2006

Well I tried to buy WC from yahoo music canada and it blocked my transaction. Then I went trough all the trouble of installing iTunes (ick) and it doesn't show up (There are "buy from iTunes" links on the hip.com; this explains why the links are broken for me.)

So much for NAFTA!
WHAT GIVES??? Why make me wait forever or pay outrageous shipping charges to buy it from Canada?
I don't remember this happening with IVL OR IBE or PP.
GRRRR

P.S. When is the US release date? I wonder if it will be accompanied by a US tour notification?

It wont be in the US till 07. Im sure its distirbution issues. And ITunes doesnt have all the CDs for bands. Just pay the shipping

Once the $12 in shipping is added it's expensive. I don't see why I need to pay 150% more because I live in the US. As I said above.. this never happend to me before with PP IBE IVL YF..etc... Not to mention I just spent $600 on hip tickets today. Nickel and Dime us to death. Geez.
What really fumes me is that I can't just buy it from Yahoo music canada. I'm paying for the IP, just send me the freaking IP. Ugh. I makes me want to drive up to kingston, purchase a bunch, and sell them on ebay here minus the shipping.

Thank Universal. The band doesn't make these decisions.

So there has to be a reason for it, correct? You think they will have a US marketing blitz with a US tour? Hunh..hunh...hunh....
