Need to rip a CD so I can actually listen to it. Not actually sure how to do this in the year 2024. Find myself downloading… iTunes? For Windows 10?
Ahh, there's that Apple Experience.
FUCK i tried to download all the music i bought on itunes in 2007 and accidentally downloaded some fucking U2 album. There's no button to un-download it. Gonna have to submerge the hard drive in lye
I started moving away from Apple so long ago that I forgot you have to watch out for them trying to trick you into listening to U2
M… maybe… maybe I'll just leave that Cee-Lo Green album in the cloud :(

I may be the only person on earth (other than Bono) who was happy to get a free U2 album with their Mac.

(I still ended up buying the physical CD later on to have a lossless copy tho', so not that big a win. Still, the Macbook was (and still is) a nice laptop from back before the enshitification got too bad and the US dollar was at par.)

@suetanvil There is some U2 I will happily listen to. But probably not whatever they were doing in 2013.

@mcc

Mood, although they're significant enough to my life that I'll buy and listen to their mediocre albums for the one or two good songs.

(As an aside, the second half of that album is pretty good, as is the one before it.)

@suetanvil I really legitimately like "New Year's Day". And their collaboration with Sinead O'Connor.
