This was a great series to be sure!
Like you, I have unfortunately lost the physical CDs over time which I also used to rip to my pc and copy to other places as well.
However, I did stumble across an app called Spotiflyer which I use to download songs/albums from Spotify (and other services) for free and then listen to them offline. It's great to have locally stored media vs. having to be chained to online services.
That being said, I haven't listened to that Billy Holiday album, but you've got my interest piqued and I'll definitely check it out.
Nice! I do often miss the days of my 120 GB iPod classic with an album collection that I had carefully curated over the course of decades. There is a lot that is convenient about the streaming era, for sure, but I feel like that set of hundreds of albums that I listened to over and over again was a really unique and personal set of music, and having a bunch of favorites on Spotify just isn't the same...
Agreed.
I don’t particularly care for streaming services either, and the reason I mentioned that app was because I use it to essentially “rip” music from Spotify, download it to a folder and then use another music player app to create custom playlists. It’s the closest option I can come to without having the actual CDs to rip from.
And the iPods were indeed great little devices that had plenty of storage and made customizing playlists easy and enjoyable. Those were the days 😉.
Thanks, I found the answer helpful. But is it a similar version to the apk that I know.
