Exactly.  To tell you the truth, I think it has aged better than GnR. I like GnR, but they definitely sound like a artifact from the '80s at this point.

Yeah, I'm sure it's the record companies. Apple would be happy to take my money if they could.
I think the way it works in Japan is they just license the tracks to Japanese labels, and the Japanese labels can pretty much do what they want with them. Stuff is more available just because the Japanese labels suck less. Probably because they don't have roots in the Mob the way US labels do.
