 Lysander_salamander: neat
aerolend: 4′33″

 Lord_Hosk: Its interesting the various "Does this album that I have listened to over an over again in a certain context count?" questions in chat
morteica: St. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band or Crossbreed. Talk about opposites

 lamina5432: I’m a weeb so most of my music is anime openings and game osts.
  TXC2: I have not listened to current music for 25 years 
 bo_brinkman: There is so so much good music. My kid introduced me to Yaelokre and Madilyn Mei. It is so hard for me to know if these are things everyone knows, or if it is niche.
 ContingentCat: it's one of the good things the internet has given us, so much more access to music
 Aceviru: @TXC2 Based
LaeliaTBR: gracie abrams

 Coloneljesus: haven't used an aux cord in so long. mixed feelings about it
 ContingentCat: Apple music was pretty easy to adjust to from Spotify
 TeaGarrison: I've always used apple music and I couldn't imagine switching because my library is massive
 EvilBadman: @ContingentCat Apple is not free from being a shitty corp
 Redbassist: Gelli haha 
niccus: Siriusmo
 ContingentCat: @EvilBadman true but they're marginally better than Spotify with AI

 ContingentCat: getting killed by geese is so fun
 TeaGarrison: @ContingentCat some of it are albums I've purchased because I was using apple before it was a streaming service

 Too_Many_Knives: Transistor has a jukebox room
 public_key_reveal_party: I can live without tv, tbh, there's very little stuff I like on TV
poipal: Curious if any of the LRR team listens to radio much (obligatory shout out to The Zone goes here)
 serramarkov: If you pick books, you can get books of music and fake it 'til you make it.
 Vinewood_OG: House MD streaming without Massive Attack is already a crime
