        I was just sad about more shootings, and then I thought, we don't need twitter type posts here. Heal the pain with music? Action seems wanting.

        I use one that's treated me well. Don't remember the brand but I just went by Newegg reviews and I think I paid $35. Am guessing Elnrik's suggestion is a much better product (?).

        I've been out of the loop w/ all the greedy, horrid & evil shit Monsanto been up to; but regardless:

        Could you guys share some pointers, tips or tricks on how to avoid buying & eating Monsanto-made (aka: stolen->modified->patented->sued/fined->re-sold) GMO seeds (cereals, oatmeal, etc) or how to avoid using their carcinogenic ingredients (in household/pesticide/food products)?
        Good stores to shop at to avoid it all?

        Become a self-sustained farmer and own your land. In the EU for example you still enjoy some protection. In some parts of the world Monsanto is unstoppable.

        Not sure but I think I’d go Google Play Music for subscription on Android. Don’t get me wrong I have enjoyed Apple Music on iPhone but Google Play is better if you take away integration factor.

        use Jdownloader, it offers you to split and cut your download for whatever you need out of the youtube video. Just copy and paste the URL wait a few seconds until it shows you what you want from it. Make your choice. Easy.

        funny next week I end Prime. trying to come up with something to buy to use up a $10 credit, before I kill it. Ran out of shows to watch this summer on Prime so moving to Netflix. It was fun when I could watch all seasons of old Top Gear.

        Don't underestimate nice UI, though. That's basically what attracted me to JRiver - plus all the automation stuff it has for syncing devices, auto-transcoding and so forth.

        Lots of people wouldn't hesitate to spend $70 on a more comfy headphone cable, after all. A nicer-feeling player with better browse and search UI? Not so minor.

        Part of why I've been using F2k for years is the fact that I could load the screen with all sorts of visualisations to help me learn how to listen and what to listen for, haha. Incidentally, I used to work in marketing, so I know how much a pretty package influences perception of quality :P

        But yeah, reserving a hard call until I get to spend more time with A+ and the fancy box loses its influence.
