I find it easier just to click stuff in Masters as a favorite. Then when I am done with going through the list that doesn't seem to know whether to use an artists first or last name, I can then look deeper into it. Easy enough to remove from favorites.

I have had mixed results with CD resolution entries. First time I listened to something I thought it sounded worse than my rips or CDs played on my transport. I finally came to the conclusion that it is the quality of the version they have. Some are very good, others not so much.

I don't think they took 62 year old audiophiles into consideration when designing their player.
There is another bug, if you put some albums in the queue, start playing, and add something to the queue, it doesn't add on to the bottom of the list, it plays next. Leaving tracks from what you are listening to, below that entry.

I have a little over two months left on my trial, and then I will decide, but I am leaning towards keeping it. The selection is surprisingly good. I just looked, they have the Blodwyn Pig albums. Most people don't even know they are.
If we were kids listening to Mp3s, it would be awesome. When I started buying albums, I think they were around $4. I was buying at least four records a month, plus a lot of $2 cutouts. And any LPs or "playlists" were copied onto cassettes.

As someone who only got into a computer music source about 18 months ago, I still find buying downloads an unnatural way of owning music. If I were to die, all my albums and CDs would be sold or donated, while the downloads would probably end up deleted.
