my international music collection
so, i did something i don't do often: put my main music collection on random/shuffle. usually when i do shuffle it's on a smaller subset of my music, say, music i got in the last month, or something like that.
the first 10 results: most non-USA music. neat. here they are, with country designation.
anyone else? this could be a good meme, right? :)
UPDATE: next 10:
New totals: UK 7, USA 6, and one each Italy, Japan, Lebanon, Canada, Sweden, France, and Germany.
UPDATE 2: one last update. next 10:
Anyone else want to try it?
