Spotify continues to be a wise investment for me. Lately, I’ve realized that I can see what my sister is listening to during the day in her office on campus, and if I put on the same album, it’s almost like we are working together even though I am downtown. So that is fun.
It’s also easy to check the new releases each week to make sure I haven’t missed ordering anything, and I have access to tons of music at work. Yes, you’re right. The entirety of In Rainbows by Radiohead isn’t available. Luckily the library owns several copies so I just loaded it up into my iTunes on the work computer.
Mister BS says my taste has changed a lot since we’ve met. He pointed out my collection of Aphex Twins CDs to illustrate his point. Yeah, I’ve mellowed a bit, and while I still don’t like popular country, I’ve been into some very countryish folk-y stuff lately. But also club music. So there’s that.
