WHO CARES how stores classify music?  Browsing for CD's is (for me) one of 
life's
simple pleasures.  I don't mind stores classifying their CD's.  It keeps 
me from
actually having to accidently browse thru any "new country" cds!  lol.  
Same
thing with toodling around a bookstore.  I could (and often do) spend 
hours at a
time in either place...

JMHO,
Jim.
