Tech Blog

My personal music collection history is fraught with poor choices. But I’d like to think it’s less because I’m an idiot, and more because I’m in search of the best solution for how I like to both listen to music and manage a collection. In terms of hardware, I began with tapes and CDs in…

Reading, hopefully not less of it

Hyperlinks Logs
