Good point. Although it'll mean that my mix (and some others I'd assume) will be pre 2016.

Out of curiosity, what's that about, LMS?

I was puzzled too.

I really liked the surprise from no track list, but wont be upset if i get a spotify playlist, its probably what i will end up doing too.

Im not great at spotify, like for instance, everything i listen to is on shuffle play and i cant seem to find an option to turn that off. But with my track record with technology, im sure i just looked right past it

I’m not sure I could make a good mix of music these days. I just listen to The National.

If I’m doing this it’s gonna be burning songs from iTunes. I haven’t purchased much new music in the last 4 years. An album or a single here and there, but not much. Maybe LMS hasn’t bought new music since 2016?

I’ve used Spotify exclusively since 2016 so I’d have to dl or buy tunes for this.

I'll be sending an MP3 mix but am happy to receive a Spotify playlist, no probs at all.

And the few weeks timeframe sounds good to me too.

Agreed on every one of the THREE points expressed in this post!!!!

Okay, that makes sense. For some reason I thought you meant you could only use songs from before 2016 if you used Spotify.

Do you use Spotify on mobile, Doc? I think that's the default on mobile and possibly the only way if you don't have premium.

Should be able to, yes. You can either download the stand alone client, or in the browser with Spotify Web Player. They'll have ads of course, but that's not a major issue.

I'll only participate if I can burn a CD and mail it to my recipient.

Fine, you're out.

I will tolerate no Alex-style "funny" posting this time, serious and sincere music reviewing only. If that's not interesting to you, please don't bother.

We have 12 players but I'll leave it open for a few more days yet.

You can’t just kick me out for a joke.

I am a little suspicious of an account with 1 post.

What if my song reviews are sincere but funny? Is this the no-fun zone?

It's me running this thing, so yes, more or less.

Bammer, I'm sorry, but you can't deliver a mix on CD. Unless it's digital, you're also out.
