Digital Detox: Music Streaming

I was not the best candidate for digital music streaming.

I have an iPod Nano somewhere. The screen is a bit busted but still usable. However, the changes made to iTunes a few years ago make using it insufferable.

I have an original Sony Walkman. I kept saying to myself, dammit I just want some mixtapes, but all my favorite music is either on CD or on Bandcamp.

Well, yesterday I broke down and bought a We Are Rewind machine that can both play and record. I should be able to plug it into my laptop's headphone jack and be able to record mp3's to make proper mix tapes. It is on its way to me.

In the meantime, with a trial long since expired, I deleted Spotify from my phone. I wasn't using it much anyway, but in any case, good riddance to it.

More soon.
