Spotify didn't... but Napster did!

I still have a full cabinet of 1 song CDs… good thing I don’t want to program, I’ll leave that to you professionals

In 1999 I went to the record store and listened to potential purchases. 😅 2006 was the last year. After that my regular record store closed down. In 2026. AI music suxxx. I still buy really good albums on vinyl. 😁 Keep the spirit alive. ✊😸

Should have gone to the listening station at the record store.

Chatgpt is almost unlimited, and only like 20USD a month. I tried the pay as you go but the money adds up too fast. Not worth it

Respectfully, the economics are not the same (if this is a reference to AI tokens). Opposite situation, in fact. One was a tax waiting to be lifted. The other is a subsidy, waiting to fall.

I remember those days!!

I refuse to use coding agents.

3 tracks only if you got scammed by a bootleg copy with malware

Sounds like skill issues to me, mine's kicking ass! That said, some of my really ambitious features are on hold while my $20 plan's tokens reset 😁

Me in 1999 would never admit that to myself, instead I'd listen to the album on loop until I loved it. Also the album was 14.99 and a double CD.

that feeling when your seed phrase generates a dud. value for value, even when the value is zero.
