Ya ya, that was a stupid point on my part...however, in terms of categories in music stores, i rarely go in to look for once specific cd. In the ambient/idm genre, you sort of have to live with what they have, not what you want. If there was no "electronica" section in my favourite store, i would spend literally HOURS going through ALL the music in the store to find the few electronica cd's that they have. Do you not agree?
