with the amount of time i’ve been spending on the bus this past week, i’m really glad that i have my nex ii mp3 player. i’ve been using morpheus to get some music, since i lost almost all of my mp3s and i’m also too lazy to re-encode my cds, but that’s been working well. i then run dbpoweramp w/ file selector to do a simple convert to 96kbps wma’s for my nex. there are some niggling details that annoy me slightly – lack of autoresuming/bookmarking, and not being able to toggle shuffling without stopping and going through a menu, as well as stability problems when it runs low on juice (it doesn’t give a low bat warning, just poops out or locks up), but overall i’m pretty happy with how my portable music set up is right now. the diva player looks interesting though (internal memory + cf1 slot + wav playback/recording)
currently listening to: the crystal method (tweekend promo. good stuff), weezer (green album is rockin. but um, short), black eyed peas, craig david, lanemeyer, rem, ani, julianna theory, the get up kids
speakin of which, i was discussing w/ a friend a few weeks back about how it seemed like the whole up’n coming (i’m just not into it enough to know (or care?) what’s goin on at the ug level) altrock scene was like in this post-emo indie rock funk.
