How do you listen to music? - P2P-Zone

still a big part of my life...

i stopped listening to radio years ago and started plugging flash drives into my last two cars...now i'm never without 30 or 40 gigs of music. at home, it's the same set-up i've had since the Napster days: computers plugged into stereo systems, so everything is played off of hard drives. and i'm also a fan of Radio Paradise and it's still a joy to find a new band - two biggest sources of new music are Radio Paradise and surf videos.

and the best music tip i've had in the last couple of years was from Jadesun, who turned me onto Radio Vickers. if you're not on his email list, you're missing out!

and btw, was hunting for a couple of cd's forever, prowling bt and newsgroups sites with no luck...

then recently downloaded and installed Soulseek for the hell of it...and presto! found what i had what i had been searching for immediately. it warms my black heart to know that Soulseek is alive and well...prolly the closest thing to the original Napster out there.

Since moving to central Washington and experiencing the dearth of creativity that is top 40 FM radio, I've been streaming music from Pandora during the 15 minutes it takes me to drive to work and the 15 minutes it takes to drive back home. Pandora, I recently read, has never turned a profit in its 17 years in business. Somehow it still feels like getting free music, even though I don't have much control over it. Why, just three days ago I installed a stereo in my truck that has the Pandora app built in; it connects to my phone for access. But knowing my luck, the company will go tits up before the end of the year and I'll have to revert back to piracy (or Spotify

).
