We're All Going to Die

Always buy physical product. Or at least download MP3s. Of any music you like. Keep control of your collection. Don't leave it to greedy corporations or moody musicians.
 
The Mrs always gets pissed off when Amazon takes music away from her library. I keep telling her that it’s not really hers if she can’t download it and save it on a hard drive. (With proper backups.)

I’ve probably purchased less than 2 dozen digital albums, but it’s getting harder to get CDs conveniently.

She bought it and downloaded it? Or is it a subscription service?
 
It’s the songs you can add to your library for free when you’ve got Amazon prime. Since you don’t actually buy them, they can take them away when they want. I tell her it’s like listening to SXM. You get to hear them on-demand as a benefit of subscribing to the service, but it’s just a rental. You’ve got to pay more if you want to be sure they are always there.
 
Amazone Prime Music always pisses me off. I'll spend 20 minutes building a playlist. Then 3 months later 1/3 of the songs are "unavailable". Because some greedy corporation had disagreements with some moody musicians, or whatever the hell. Give me an MP3 player loaded with 5,000 MP3s and I'm good.

A friend of mine's spouse had some had some hard to find music in his library. He subscribed to Apple Music. It went through his library and of course could not find a match in iTunes for these pieces. Of course, the course of action Apple did in this case was to delete the music from the library. He eventually settled with Apple for a generous credit but didn't change the fact that some of his music was gone forever. Yet another reason for me to avoid Apple Music.
 
As with most politicians and executives, the rules only apply to 'those other people'. My wife's boss and his wife always break the rules they insist others follow when it comes to Covid protocol. "You can't put me at risk, but I can put you at risk because I'm me and you're you."
 
"We're All Going To Die," dumb dodo edition, part 31. One of Kid Rock's biggest hits is All Summer Long. Apparently he wants his fans to be exposed to COVID all summer long.

Now all he has to do is not perform at venues without a mandate, and we'll be all set.

I seen him twice in concert, I doubt I would see him again. I agree with channel this is certainly a Dumb Dodo!
 
I liked "Batwitdaba" and "Bullgod" back in '99. He's done nothing else at all that I like very much. "Amen" in 2007 was okay, and he guested on Uncle Kracker's "Who's Your Uncle" and that's okay once in a while. Oh, I do like the one that samples Stern ("Balls") but I heard about that from the Stern show years after it was recorded. Two great songs, three okay ones. The rest, toss it all in the (white) trash.
 
For me I like his early stuff like Bawitdaba, Cowboy, American Bad Ass and Picture w/Sheryl Crow.

I don't mind "All Summer Long" to me it's to much of a rip-off of "Sweet Home Alabama"

I'm with yea the rest, toss in the (white) trash.

I just listened to his latest song "We The People" omg. Whoever likes that song, no wonder why our country is f'ed up.
