FLAC (for a newbie)
Isn't that perfect. I was just about to move to purchasing music online rather than buying CDs, but now I've converted all of my music to M4A format (which is Apple's ALAC version of FLAC which ONLY plays on Apple music. Sigh. So, …

FLAC (for a newbie)
You have that many types? I went through the arduous task of taking all 4,000 or so songs I had on mp3 and retapped the cd to make m4a. It's annoying but now I think I have to get FLAC files and then convert them to ALAC (e.g. m4a). THEN, if…

FLAC (for a newbie)
I ran across this site that I thought might be of interest for purchasing FLAC/M4A/MP3 files. I haven't tried it yet. https://us.7digital.com I'm guessing they have a site for those of you in England as well. I'm hesitating because I…

Incredible. If you didn't see the stage or hear the crowd, it's pretty difficult to determine it's not a studio recording. The only band that I would play a live performance. And, yet, Alison makes it so personal, you know it'…

Wow
This one blew my mind. For instance, you can cross the universe (sort of ) in a handful of years but, once you get there, the universe would be so old that you would be the only thing left. Or, you could go to the nearest star and back and have on…

FLAC (for a newbie)
I am shocked to find that the MP4A files also improved the sound over earbuds on a cell phone a lot. I mean, these were cheap knockoff earbuds too. O f course, first I had to find a cell phone that would play MP4A files without having to download …

So fine... I should mention the movie has David Bowie in it. As I remember it, the movie was pretty strange.

FLAC (for a newbie)
I decided to take a critical listen to a few of the songs I had recorded from CD to M4A. No surprise that Goldfrapp was about as crystal clear as one can hope. I mean, it is no surprise from a band whose concerts sound like they were studio recordi…

FLAC (for a newbie)
You see? I'm like a dog with a bone. Give me something to chew on and I don't stop until the last of it is gone. At least, if I'm interested at all. Anyways, CDs are a better reproduction than mp3's if you have the right decod…

Just realizing I should mention that I also got a shot (J&J). I wasn't ever trying to avoid that. It was just a year too late for when I really needed it.

Dune looks great. I expect some nice twists from the original. Oh, yeah, sorry. This is supposed to be tunes.

I read all of these articles about how people are not going to work and not one of them mentions that about 20%-25% of those that have had covid experience long covid. I got hit with covid twice more than a year ago. I used a Bedouin practice of bu…

Reminds me of a story I heard about "first edition" books on ebay, amazon, etc. A lot of those books that are advertised as first editions are just that: advertised as first editions. Snake oil salesmen by any other name. Somebody out t…

As I think further, "political correctness" is the same way. It can be used to manipulate people, bypass the critical thinking function.

Religion
You know, I think the biggest problem with religion is that it can be used to manipulate people so easily. Have faith and follow some religious leader's direction because god told him so. In other words, "because I said so." There&…

Nice idea. I'll take their music anyway I can get it. It really is chill to the bone.

After further review, it is not only transcendent but incredible.
