Apogee Duet Kicks Ass
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 😈

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.

What are you reading now?
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...

I reverted to iTunes on macOS 10.13. At least it works properly with my iPod Shuffle.
