On Mon, Jul 5, 20044:43 PM, the following words from Lisbeth Zachs zachs at swedenmail.com, emerged from a plethora of SPAM ... >Music Store both said and written sounds much nicer. :-) But, it is not just a generic Music Store - it is Apple's iTunes Music Store. You don't use it without iTunes no matter what country you are in. The abbreviation of iTMS has been used by a lot of people already, so you are sure to see it more frequently. I also use those initials because people so far know what it is on other forums and mailing lists. If those initials cause "so bad a vibrations that I'm not sure I want to use it when we get it in Sweden" then not using it will be your choice - possibly your loss. Though chances are good that you'll be interested enough to ride out those bad vibrations. ;-) To you it apparently "Sounds like a Monthly Syndrome of some sort or something created by MicroSoft." but since Microsoft didn't create it, I wouldn't be surprised if they are looking for ways to squash it or patent a technology used to make it possible. I'm sure that once you are able to use it, and want to discuss it with others, the iTMS abbreviation won't cause you any adverse effects. For me and my PowerBook, it's all good. :-) cheshirekat -- After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. - Aldous Huxley (1894 - 1963) * 867 PowerBook G4 * OS X 10.2.8 * 768 MB Ram *
