musical changes

so...i meant to go to sleep a while ago but that's clearly not happening. instead it seemed like it would be a good idea to sort thru the music on my computer and remove some stuff from my iPhone [ughhhh...i hate owning an apple product as many of my close friends like to tease me about this fact] that i don't really listen to or need on there. a few realizations:

1. i've got a few albums that i really need to listen to in order to determine which song i really do and don't like on said albums [so i can thus make space in the 8 gbs i have.
2. once again, an album by one of my favorite artists dropped without my knowledge...dagh! i have only myself to blame...what's up with me?
3. i just bought said album thru amazon's mp3 store. it's the first album by this artist that i have not bought in CD format and to be honest i feel kinda funny about it. call me a purist or whatever [wouldn't i have to be into vinyl to really be a purist?], but there are certain albums/artists where owning the hard copy has some meaning to it. i was able to get the album for $8.99 tho...i'm sure it would cost around $16-$18 in store [if i could even find it there] as it's a double disc set and likely an import. ughhh...i guess in certain cases it's just nice to have a physical copy of things.

well, i'm exhuasted and think i'll go pass out listening to some of that music that i need to listen to in order to try to clear a little more space...

new old skool

an ironic take on the mp3 player. it looks like an old skool cassette tape but it's playback is all new skool as it plays mp3. but u get to relive some of that old skool magic, not only in terms of styling but also doing that twist ur finger in the hole thing to fast forward or rewing songs. comes with a case to help aid the classic look.
