i like about 12-14 of those artisits, which is surprising since its about 1/2 & none of my friends like them,
maybe i should get new friends that know at least something about music or at least dont like r&b/rap/pop

How much Kruder & Dorfmeister does a girl have to order before they crack the top 25?

I didn't know Eva Cassidy was that popular.

I wonder if it's related to which artists have allowed their music to be sold on iTunes. (Then again, I don't see any Zep... and the Beatles being #1 means very little.)

 

[Bonochick]

Some of them made the list because everybody is too embarrassed to purchase them at a store...so they try to do it online from the privacy of their home.

I'm not saying who...I don't want people throwing rotten fruit at me.

That list is very adult, as teenagers are less likely to use Amazon and instead buy their CDs in the store.
