Taro T Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 I'm curious what you plan to convert to digital. Is it stuff that simply doesn't exist outside of your vinyl pressings? Mainly stuff that I've not gotten around to buying on CD. Some Floyd, Genesis, Yes, & BTO to start. The Alarm, the Payola$ too. Judas Priest, King Crimson, & Zappa. Haven't even looked at my vinyl collection in years. Probably have over 100 albums that I never got on CD. Some of the stuff is rare, but most of it is just stuff I never could justify re-buying, especially after having kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of that stuff is probably available to stream on Prime Music so you don't even need to buy the physical albums. I know that personally if I'm not spinning the physical vinyl it's easy enough to just stream it. Although I know the quality isn't as good as CD thanks to compression.

I realize .WAV isn't as rich as, nor has the range of, full analog playback but it still is noticeably better than mp3. Also, there's something really comforting (for lack of a better word :lol:) about listening to albums straight through. Making playlists from disks you own is cool too. Guess one of thes days I'll have to reorganize the collections biographically. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro T Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Whatever you say Cusak from High Fidelity. :flirt: :lol: If that would be herculean, pretty sure just trying to do chronologically by date of purchase would be nearly impossible. Though sorting by "WTF did that seem like a good purchase at the time" might be interesting as well. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josie Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 (edited) Anniversary of first date? Actually, we really don't know when the actual date is. Just kinda turned into us looking at each other one day and going "you're my girlfriend/bf, right?" He kissed me for the first time on April Fools (easy to remember) and then we were just busy with school/life for a couple weeks seeing each other when we could. Didn't want it to be 4/1- I'd been dumped the previous year on April Fool's and lemme tell you, having an important thing happen to you on that day sucks. He chose 4/25 some months after we'd been together and we had figured out that this was actually going to be a lasting thing. Doesn't really matter, honestly! Girls vs. Boys Girls remember anniversary of first date Boys barely remember the anniversary of their own wedding Oh before I forget congratulations!!! :beer: Back at you Ah he remembers, I'm just the louder one on social media/make art for it. I think he remembered better this year than I did, actually. Congrats!! My hope is that if he gets that '7 year itch' thing that you are right there to scratch it. And vise versa ... ;) I brought this up while we were hiking on Sunday. He'd never heard the phrase before, actually. He claims to be all set in that department. I mean, I may not be *insert gorgeous perfect wonderful dream girl celeb whatever here* but he could do worse haha Edited April 25, 2018 by josie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not terribly worried about it, but considering all my CD's, except a couple of rare ones stolen a long time ago by a "friend," are backed up in .WAV format am planning on backing the vinyl up the same way. The storage is cheap enough & everything but the turntable is already set up. Though had tried a cheap turntable a few years ago that the wife got me for Christmas, so even the turntable settings are probably properly set. Truly don't see a reason to go out of my way & NOT burn to .WAV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swedish name theme went by the wayside. A month + ago. Maybe even 2 monthsish. There was a grand announcement.
