| Issues with AudiogoN forum website, anyone? It's been fine for me since last night and I've been able to work around application errors the last few days by just going back a page and trying again. Or refreshing. | |
| Is using streaming services worthy of an audiophile? Also not sure what "lose control of all your music" means? All of "my" music is at my fingertips on a NAS drive and I can play anything I want from Tidal as well. I would call that much better "control" of my music and much more convenience. | |
