What’s new to you?

I don't think so...

The pay music streaming service Rhapsody bought rights to the name Napster, after Napster was shut down for all of the illegal downloads going on at the end of the 90s - early 2000s.

I guess Rhapsody decided their name wasn't well known enough, and bad publicity is better than no publicity... so they used Napster? Whatever the insane thinking, the service is really good, IMO. Same idea as Spotify, etc. I like the interface for Napster a lot. I feel like it's easy to find, save, and access my choice of music. Not perfect, but good.

Also, it has a low-band streaming of 96 kbps. The best you'll get elsewhere is a variable that starts at 128, I believe. If you listen to a lot of music on cellular data, and have a limited data cap, that adds up quickly.

(Edit: They're the pioneer service you might never have heard of, lol... 'Rhapsody was the first streaming on-demand music subscription service to offer unlimited access to a large library of digital music for a flat monthly fee... ' - Wikipedia, Rhapsody).

My bad, I forgot the laughing emoji. I know what it is. I just didn't know it was still around. I guess there's still a market for it, which is actually pretty cool. YouTube music has a setting for only playing on WiFi or streaming at different quality settings on cellular data, but the UI is a garbage fire.

Yeah my wife uses Youtube while she's at work when they are getting stuff ready to start their day.

What's that? Is that like Limewire without the absurd amount of viruses?

Ahhh, the days of gambling if that album you found on Limewire was actually DMB or a virus.

I actually used Kazaa but my buddy who had a CD burner had Limewire. Fun to think back to those days before streaming audio.

I didn’t know either existed, anymore. And I think Rhapsody had a good name and positive recognition. Way better than Napster. I think that was a bad move.

Whoa! Don't give up so fast... In these crazy Corona-days, you never know. Heck, the Venezuelan Bolívar could end up being the dominant monetary fund in a few years?

Uncharted waters, my friend. [emoji16]

So these 2 girls may need some replating I would be surprised if they didn't. Who's the guru to contact for that?

You got that right. I've used Google Play Music for several years, and uploaded around 800 CDs worth of mp3 files to it. Now they're shutting off GPM and moving everyone to YouTube Music. I was able to move my library over, but the interface is absolutely horrible.

@Granite.Glasser was kind enough to send me this minty Tech. The soap was scored on a BST.

I've been shopping around since I put my bid in. Yikes. Now I remember why we thought wet shaving would save us money.

I got a 10 pack for $12.99 shipped. Nearly half what Walgreens wanted

That's around what I've been looking at. I'll pull the trigger after supper. I think this merits a video when the blades come in.

It's even worse on Android Auto. Nothing is intuitive and it's super messy. I could've designed something better as a child. I understand why they merged the two products, but that doesn't make it any less crappy.
