I started getting burned out on the classic rock I grew up with over 20 years ago, but nearly every radio station/genre sticks to a playlist that guarantees that you're going hear the same songs over and over and over and over and over. Oldies/Classic Rock stations have 60 years of music to select from, but their brilliant, industry directed program managers bombard their listeners with the same 25 songs. No deep cuts or flip sides. Even satellite radio stations stick with a playlist! I hope you find a way to upgrade your mini, because the streaming options have saved my soul with a refreshing infusion of excellent, fresh new music that uses the same formula and ingredients as the classic rock I grew up on. It's a beautiful thing.
Excellent topic and entertaining read. Thanks for sharing.
