Listening to my music library, some of the uploads have flaws from dust and disc damage, kind of funny. Amazon used to offer a digital music library but canned that a few years ago.
It's all about the money.
Offer free stuff, then start limiting it to get people to by the premium deal and then phase the free setup completely.

If masks can't prevent you from catching disease, and can't prevent you from spreading disease, why the **** are we still being told we have to wear them?

If this crap was spread by farts and the guvmint told people to use butt plugs, a goodly number would do precisely that. And there would be plug Karens wanting to check if you had yours in before you went grocery shopping.
We, the People of these United States, have lost the ability and, far worse, the desire to run our own lives.
I'm still troubled by what I did for that Klondike bar...

That's for sure. Whether or not the Dems get in, they've learned how easy it is to corral the herd and exert control to move them in the desired direction.

Here's the thing about masks and this disease that makes no sense to me. If it's truly airborne and easily spread as they say then it can and will infect us through our eyes, and in any closed system environment everyone would get sick. Meaning any building that recirculates the air within, the infection rate does not represent this sooooooooooo? Also I know about ppe and chemical protections, these stupid masks have so many holes around them they don't do ****. Ever wear one and walk past someone and smell a strong odor of perfume? That right there demonstrates their effectiveness. This my **** opinion, everyone has one, right or wrong our government has been dictating how we can live and make a living for seven + months now and that is wrong. I'm not saying this disease isn't deadly or not easily spread, all I'm saying is the mask mandate is not effective and people should not rely on them as though they will save the day.

Google retired their Google Play Music in favor of Youtube Music. I had previously uploaded much of my CD collection to Google Play Music and then transferred it over to Youtube Music grudgingly. Now they've cut off Google Play Music and I'm hating using Youtube Music. Currently shuffle playing all my uploaded songs.
I have to figure out how to get this to work on my phone. I've got a separate Youtube account not tied to my other Google accounts, but the music is tied to my Google Accounts so it's on a different account.
One bright spot in all of this is that the skip forward and skip back buttons on my keyboard actually do what they should in Youtube Music unlike Google Play Music where they didn't do squat. I do miss being able to play by Genre from my library, but it's nice to be able to play all my music commercial free. Currently playing Hank Williams (Sr.).

Just love driving 45mins to a doctor appointment I've had scheduled for 4 months (last was in person appt., doc said "we don't need these masks" lol). I get a text from the doctor 15mins before appointment time saying "Do you want to do Skype or FaceTime" I said "I'm at your office"...
If you quote me do the @TX98Z28 in your text or I won't be notified of your quote, Thanks.
I hate that the moment I want peace and quiet and put on my headphones to listen to music, everyone decides that is the moment they need to ask 50 questions.
And I hate the term, ":Are you busy?"

I go to the lunchroom at work and someone decides it is a great time to FaceySpacey Chat to their loved ones with the spawn screaming in the background. All while not even considering using some darn earbuds, like we all want to hear about the kids last bowel movement while we are eating.

Engage their family in conversation while they're on speakerphone and they'll get the hint, or you'll make new friends.

Agreed. Say hi to their family. They'll look at you like your a freak.
Then tell them, "What? i assumed this was a conversation for all of us."

I drop my neck gaiter off my face every chance I get when I'm not on the sales floor. I can't imagine having to wear it all day.
