My truck has a CD player. But my CDs are scattered throughout three cars and a bookcase, and some of my music is only on my computer. I had an iPod, but it got stolen. I use a flip phone that was already dated when I got it in 2009, so no bluetooth phone music for me.
So.... I'm importing music from CDs that I never copied before, and I'm redoing some oldies in unsupported and low-bitrate formats, and I started transferring the works over to a flash drive. One thing I can say: my laptop with Windows 10 is worlds faster than my desktop running Vista, and the previous ones running 98 and XP.
Before I got too far along, I went out and tested the flash drive in the truck last night. Good sound. Pleased that it reads playlists. I listened to some music I haven't listened to in years. Stuff I'd forgotten I had.
Who knows? Maybe I'll set up the USB turntable I got as a gift a couple years ago and finally copy some of my LPs that have never been released as CDs. (Like the original Chuck Wagon & The Wheels)
Then I'll just have to figure out what to do with dozens of cassette tapes. I wonder if the Walkman will work with the aux jack in my truck? I wonder if the Walkman even still works?
