OK, I was wrong. If you take out itms: and http: at the front you get reams of XML out, see below. Near as I can tell, "itms:" accomplishes dispatching the output to iTunes, which ought to be done with the media-type or namespace or some such. But it's nice that you can safely ignore it. http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZSearch.woa/wa/advancedSearchResults?artistTerm=Beck&albumTerm=Sea%20Change -- Cheers, Tim Bray (ongoing fragmented essay: http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/)
