        OMFG, Amazon.co.uk is hooked up with Amazon.com! :eek: I bet it is a global conspiracy between Amazon and Amazon. Will their reach ever be thwarted. :-D Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

          Actually it's very cool to be able to order british CDs from the UK site when you live in the US. Sometimes you can get the same 'import' CD on Amazon US for twice the price even with the extra shipping from the UK to the US.
