I think it’d be worth it just for the increase in size. If it all works good, that is. I’ve had bad experiences that will make me feel a little hesitant to upgrade TVs in the future. My last 2 TV purchases have both been a pain the caboose due to manufacturing defects. My 70” Sony: The...

Lack of Siri support when using Amazon Music HD with CarPlay. No desire to use Alexa when there are other services that do work with Siri. Amazon Music HD is no doubt a great deal, though.

I switched from being a part-time Apple user with Android phone but iOS iPads to an all-Apple user with an iPhone after Google killed Google Play Music and forced everyone onto YouTube Music. I wouldn’t blame you for paying for another music service. On a different note… What’s kind of weird...

I’m still waiting for Spotify so-called HiFi. Not really. I want it, sure, but I don’t use Spotify enough to warrant paying extra for lossless CD quality. I might’ve gone with Amazon Music HD but it didn’t have Siri when using CarPlay, if I recall correctly. And I would’ve gone with Apple...

The revived “Kids in the Hall” on Amazon Prime.

Smelly leather jacket on a hot day or not, he’s a gonna get his ass kicked if he keeps that up.

I know he’s supposed to be showing off... Asthma can’t slow him down, etc. But the escalator scene always bugs me. Dude comes off as a jerk. What’s the hurry? Because if it ain’t explosive diarrhea or some other emergency he needs to chill. EDIT: Turns out he’s trying to catch up to...

Say what?!!!

Personally I guess I’ve frowned upon both ways a time or two. Cant recall any specifics but I know there have been times where I started to roll my eyes at the amount of rhyming in a song or two to the point where I started to wonder if it was a sign of amateurish songwriting. (I’m NOT a...

word up, I think.

Justin Hawkins of The Darkness (one of my favorite bands) has a YouTube podcast. Usually he’s almost too nice in his critiques, but he’s pretty negative toward Maroon 5 and their song “Moves Like Jagger”. Of particular interest to me is his complaint that they are stretching it a bit in trying...

Those Insignia speakers had no right to sound as good as they did! Back in the day during a temporary move I ran those paired with an Energy sub.

You know I never even looked at a Samsung OLED. However I did look at some LGs and a Sony, but had rather quickly ruled out OLED. Not because it doesn’t look great, but because I was just being possibly overly paranoid about burn-in. Price comparison is a little off because the only OLEDs I...

Ha! Journey’s Faithfully made the list Loved that song as a kid. Probably gave me chills the first time I heard it. Bit I Kinda hate journey as an adult. Speaking of journey have I ever mentioned that a girl I went to high school with married Neal Schon? And a few years later they got...

I don’t think I fully understand frisson. But I was trying to think of stuff that might qualify on my own. This probably ain’t a cigar, and it might not even be close. But I’m throwing out Tears For Fears song “River Of Mercy”. Only because it starts out with sirens and takes maybe half a...

It’s just a secondary TV set, so it’s smaller: 50 inch Samsung QN90A model. It’s the one with mini-LEDs. So not quite as good with blacks and starlight as OLED, but maybe a little brighter than a similarly priced OLED. My first one had a bad speaker that buzzed rattled and farted even during...

Just throwing this out there if anyone has experienced this personally or knows what’s up. A quick web search results in some combination of Samsung TVs and Sony soundbars. And maybe the oddball related (or unrelated?) issue between Samsung and Sonos. I’m sure I could find plenty of other...

I’ve been listening to the new Tears for Fears album. Absolutely love it!

Hey Bob…. Think I might need to put those bands into a custom radio station on LiveXLive. Take a trip down the rabbit hole. Usually I spend a lot of time listening to the Acid Jazz station just because i like the way the music sounds on the speakers. I barely sampled Twelve Bar bluesband on...

Good to hear Amazon Music works like I’d want. Maybe there’s still hope for Apple. Probably not, but maybe. I still prefer to buy music. Rips CDs when possible. But gotta admit it’s pretty nice to call up almost any song at will and hear it without commercials. Right now is probably the...
