I WAS in love with iTunes Genius… and I do still sorta like Genius, but sometimes it makes me go WTF?

I am having a minor obsession right now with Vancouver uber cutesters Mother Mother.
I read about them the other day in the TC of all places and thought I might like to check them out.
Groovy boy/girl harmonies like the New Pornographers or Stars. A couple of the songs on O My Heart do get a [...]

Now I get that AC/DC is a wickedly popular band. But holy moly is Brian Johnson out of touch. He slams iTunes with one breath and in his next hands Wal-Mart an exclusive for the new record Black Ice.
There is so much wrong with his logic, it would take me all [...]
