I ordered music from this shop in Toronto, Electron. I bought "You Make Me This Happy" by I Am Robot And Proud, Piehead Records, for $14.95 CAN. $15.50 delivered. Heard it on CBC 3. Now that I have highspeed and a 2.4 Ghz CPU, CBC 3 is no where near as worrysome as it has been made out to be though I still have to figure out the schedule. They present music nowhere else available - not on Much Music, standard FM radio or the rest of the CBC. It is also on demand so it can't be hidden in the night like Brave New Waves. It is good now to like CBC 3. Anything else is HTML standards lickery and worship of the dial-up shackle.
Note: you can buy from Electron via Paypal [which all shops on-line should offer] to find bands that use equipment like this.

Ordered last Sunday arrived today Sunday. Three working days between. Beats the hell out of the cheque I sent to Sloan's records which was not ever even cashed by their manager let alone the CDs sent; the $450.00 cheque I've waited for two months for conference expenses; the $261.00 cheque I have waited for five and a half months for which is now reliably promised by next week; the Happy Day CD; the They Might Be Giants CDs; and, most tragically, the Tijuana Bibles CD.<p>The music is happy, simple electronic stuff - Kraftwerk on an up day. Only 311 copies were printed. Thank you CBC3 for being so useful.

Mor egood news on deliveries. The Tijuana Bibles got in the mail today, the two They Might Be Giants showed last Friday (amazon delivery within the week has won my loyalty) and the $265.00 check I have been waiting for since 18 July showed today. All good.
