$156.01 of iTunes (and more!)

I recently finished a large freelance project, and one of the things I did with the money was buy everything on my iTunes wish list. That's $156.01. For that, I got 172 songs--including 7 albums and a lot of songs from Glee. (By "a lot," I mean 47.) (Yes, 47. God help me.) (Interestingly, some are categorized as "pop" and others as "soundtrack." And that's not by songs from shows vs. songs not from shows.) And then I got a bunch of songs that either I ran across randomly or, more likely, I saw when I was looking at my tapes and was like, "OMG I HAVE TO HAVE THAT SONG RIGHT NOW!!!" (I'm also using some of my earnings to get a bunch of tapes converted to CD.)

Which version of "1776" - the original cast or the 90's revival with Brent Spiner. Don't scoff - they're both good. (Yes, I own both. Although I appear to have misplaced my OCR.)

And I hope while you were on this spree that you grabbed "Book of Mormon" from Amazon while it was on sale for $2...

The original "1776" (replacing the tape that I had--that I got before that revival, which I saw!).

And yep, I snagged "Book of Mormon" on Sunday.
