AutoChanger Audit

The contents of the Autochanger has remained static (aside from rotation) for perhaps six months. It is a new year - it is time for a change. The outgoing selection is:

1: Chronologie (Jean Michel-Jarre)
2: Little Ginger Club Kid (Tim Deluxe)
3: Kokopelli (Kosheen)
4: Talkie Walkie (Air)
5. 1990AD (Enigma)
6. Night on my side (Gemma Hayes)

The new selection will be deployed later today.

Ah - takes me back to a lost weekend in a hotel in Amsterdam! ;)

Well - the contents of the autochanger remains resolutely 2004 - didn't do it. I did do a dangerous and potentially foolhardy thing this morning, though.

The CD's are in a cupboard. I opened the door, and, without looking, grabbed a CD. It was Michael Jackson's THRILLER. Still sounds good! :)

Autochangers and home-made compilation CDs are so last year!

Get an iPod!

Start working on a The Perfect Playlist.

It'll tell you how often you listen to tracks and when you last listened to them (so you can tell which tracks you skipped).

After a while, when you have a set of tunes you can listen to all the way through with no skipped tunes you have The Perfect Playlist.

Now burn it to CD.

Yep - I hear what you're saying. But, in technology terms, an iPod would be a half-baked solution. If we're going down that particular road (and I'd LOVE to!), Then I want hard disc caddy somewhere on the car. I want a 10cm active matrix TFT multifunction display (MFD) where the stereo should be and everything channeled through something like Windows Media Center Edition. I just use this product name as a shorthand - I'm sure Linux would do it better/cheaper - but you get my drift. I want my 200gb of MP3 on tap, but I also want a JVM, GPS - and we may as well throw in 3G as well. If we're going to do this, let's do it properly!
