Autorip

I have to say that Amazon has a great thing in their ‘Autorip’ program. For those that are unaware, a good portion of the physical music they sell includes a free MP3 version of the album so you can start listening as soon as you order.  As well, it’s part of their ecosystem then so you can tell Alexa to play it and it just knows you own it now and queues it up.  Considering some of the physical cds on sale are super cheap and you get the original disc and the new fangled digital, it’s a great bargain.  I just wish they did this for book/ebooks too.  I’d be buying so much more from them if that was the case.

Mix CDs – Introduction

One of the things on my to-do list recently was taking my old mix-cds and getting them into digital format via playlists.  I posted about it earlier in March when I was starting up the new version of the site.  I then kind of back burnered it after ripping them and getting most transcribed.  So I need to start getting back to that.  With that in mind, I’m going to make a series of posts for the first few of them that I setup in youtube as public playlists.  Enjoy.

Music Man

So apparently I frequent the Wendy’s enough that certain clerks recognize me.  The one today told me that every time I come in she thinks I’m a music person, like a guitarist or something. I thanked her as I’ll take it as a compliment as I’m sure it was intended.  Sadly though, I don’t really have a musical bone in my body so I don’t really live up to my image.
