I have most of the Zenph discs. The binaural piano performances are kind of redundant... there was not a huge amount to be gained there, in my opinion.

Probably to a hard drive for now. The files and folders have to be sorted out and re-named... some of them are probably redundant as they are already stored in our archive. Most of the disks are about 15-25 years old. I have an old Mac running Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard to open some of the really old files. The really critical files have long since been upgraded to new formats, but a few files got left behind.

For dinosaur technicians like me – I just found out that macOS stopped supporting reading of HFS-formatted disks after macOS Mojave. Apparently Mac OS X 10.6 was the last OS that supported writing HFS-formatted optical disks. Fortunately, I still have some old installs that will let me finish this long-delayed archiving project (old CDs/DVDs/Zip disks/floppy disks).

Bluesound announced their new generation Node and PowerNode products last month: https://www.bluesound.com/news/2021/bluesound-introduces-new-generation-of-node-and-powernode/ The PowerNode might be the perfect source/amp box for my dad.

I remember the hype when the Duet first launched... never got the chance to play with one. I'm curious how it might compare to a Chord Mojo, for example.

"Sony shipped a Celine Dion CD with a copy-protection mechanism that kept it from being played on Sony PCs." Genius 😈

The Police – Outlandos d'Amour Wiki: "Contemporary reviews of the album were largely unfavourable." Not terrible 😎

16 vs 32 cores – no contest. It kind of sounds like Adios, AMD to me as well.

This is great. Looking forward to my lossless copies of Johnny Hates Jazz and Scorpions tracks! I wonder if the new features will get added to older versions like iTunes in macOS and Windows later.

There is a small market for high-end universal-fit IEMs, but I guess they're about to find out how small. 😓

Not reading this (GoodReads reviews are mixed), but I like the cover and I was listening to Rumours again, wondering about the production method: Shorter, but effective (surprisingly close to disaster) – Rumours: https://vintageking.com/blog/2017/11/fleetwood-mac-rumours/ and Tango in the Night (ditto): https://www.salonhttps://www.salon.com/2017/04/02/he-could-be-brash-he-could-be-harsh-he-was-very-motivated-the-real-story-behind-fleetwood-macs-tango-in-the-night/.com/2017/04/02/he-could-be-brash-he-could-be-harsh-he-was-very-motivated-the-real-story-behind-fleetwood-macs-tango-in-the-night/ and Tusk is on order...
