Yeah I pair mines with the bluetooth, when I used to use aux I would get pops with my mp3 player.

I need to get on this bluetooth wagon.  I know my car supports it, but I have never even considered using it, nor even knew what it was for.  Maybe I should take my car's instruction manual out of it's plastic or something.

Yeah, it takes about 30 seconds to pair the devices.  One less cable.

 

I've got bluetooth speakers around my house so I can listen in any room without wires.  Nice technology.  We'll probably find out a few years from now it causes cancer.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I'm a live radio guy, don't really purchase music.

I got another question though. How do you play music in your car?

Spotify on my S4 to my car radio via bluetooth!

I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.

How do you buy your Music

It's the internet age. I haven't bought a single song in years.

 

It's like having tons of money and a hottie at home but yet paying for some skanky hooker.

 

Wait..... That's Tiger Woods....

 

Never mind.

I got another question though.  How do you play music in your car? 

 

I used to burn CDs to play music in my car.  But now I have aux and usb.  My stereo supports plugging in an iPod, which I've done.  But Apple is Apple and there's a bunch of pops and clicks and it sounds terrible.  Streaming from Amazon with my phone using aux works great but it's kind of a hassle to change songs and stuff and it just keeps playing when I turn the car off.  I'm probably just going to end up copying my mp3s to a thumb drive.  Am I doing this wrong?

I have a similar setup and I use everything. Bluetooth from my iphone, iPod into USB, and also a thumb drive into the USB.


The thumb drive is my fave because I can organize the artist into alphabetized folders. Much faster than searching by artist. Everything through my USB sounds absolutely great. Also, the thumb drive eliminates cables and accepts voice commands.

My wife is a regional manager for the largest music retail company that is left standing.  We get tons of promo material.

 

When I went to UNF, I worked at their radio station. We used to get so many free promo CD's that we'd never play so we used to divvy them up.

 

Now I probably have about 400-500 CD's I never listen to sitting in boxes.

Multiply that by 20 years and you have our collection. Up until we converted it all over to mp3, it sat in boxes. Going digital allowed us to really reconnect with all that music we'd forgotten about.

As others have said its no real reason to buy music anymore in today's age when every song you can think of is readily available on multiple cheap or even free streaming sites or even YouTube.

You don't even want to know how many VHS tapes I own.  And I didn't even start collecting them until after they were obsoleted by DVD (which I also have tons of in storage, most never opened).  Today I don't even have a DVD player on hand.  Even when I did recently, I just searched netflix and amazon to see if it was on there.  If it wasn't, i just watched something else (though I knew I had the DVD too).

I've always gravitated toward such a small handfull of musical artists, so whenever they released music I was always pretty much like "HERE!! TAKE MY MONEY!!!!".

That list has gotten smaller and smaller in recent years for me.  It seems like for the people I consider icons, the corporate grind has gotten to them.  When you start to hear their music playing in commercials, you know they've finally sold out for the cash, and understandably so.  Still, it diminishes the quality of their new music.

One band I'm in to from their early days is Crack The Sky, they have not sold out and still play the larger clubs

NEVERRR! Having a shuffle and a touch was punishment enough for me. My days of spending a whole day in iTunes to do things that would take a couple seconds to do with any other software are over.

---

ITunes. Whole album 99% of the time.

 Same here.

 

There will be that rare time, though, that a store like Best Buy will sell an album I want for a couple bucks less than iTunes has it for. In that case, I buy it in store.

---

I have only purchases 4 albums my entire life with the last purchase coming 10 years ago with 50 cents Get Rich or Die Trying.


I use iTunes to purchase individual tracks, but I have to go through Amazon to find the underground indie, rap, rock, neo soul stuff.


Bootlegging stuff off of Napster when they first came out was fun though.

Lol what are you trying to do besides listen to music? You literally press on the song title and it plays.

I pretty much never listen to music on in that piece of garbage, does anybody? Apple forces you to use it if you buy any of their devices. If you didn't notice, you can do a million things in iTunes (and it all sucks). It's like a dysfunctional operating system. It reminds me of how bad AOL's software used to be.
