  I’m an MP3 man. iPods and the iTunes requirement kept me outta the apple ecosystem.

    have you ever moved country? if you change address they ( internet services ) delete your library because of copyright

    they can’t delete a physical album

    I lost about 1000 albums

    ( i might do navidrome when i get new puters and stuff of my own, even then, so much of what we use is reliant on electricity supply 🤷‍♀️ )

      You have a valid point. Also, we’re one of those countries that treats piracy (or a lot of the time, even just digitising your existing physical media) as the ultimate crime against society. Since we also let border officer take backups of phones and computers, indefinitely storing them on their hard drives, and they’re allowed to demand passwords, and seize devices with no justification, I feel pretty sure your music would get seized at the border.

      But also, they act like they’re allowed to do whatever they want with no requirement to justify their actions, they’d probably seize CDs too just for shots and giggles

        so don’t carry your personal stuff

        buy a burner when you reach your destination

        and if it’s a work computer who gives a shit

      All the music platforms are terrible. They try to push playlists and make you listen to music the way they want you to.

      I don’t want to go any further forward than queuing up albums in VLC player from an external harddrive
