I got this from a coworker and it already had some insane bootlegs like this recording of Fiona Apple. I have been listening to it instead of spotify

I have my Dad’s old iPod Nano from 2009 that I occasionally will pull out and listen to what he had on there and put new MP3’s in. It has a camera and can take AMAZING 480p video

this is inspiring me to finally find a charger for my old mp3 player. I’m pretty sure it only has pre 2010 christian rock on it

BUY AN IPOD NANO ON EBAY

I’m determined to use my phone about 90% less in the new year. I’ve replaced IG with Pi.Fyi & now I’m using an ipod for all of my music!!! There’s something so sacred about the process of curating the music that actually takes so much time. You have to buy or download the music (which, buying on itunes has felt like a supportive option for the musicians I admire. $10 bucks for one of my favorite albums. down.) Then you drag it onto your ipod. Watch the “Synchronizing” wheel on your ipod. Eject the Ipod. Go to Cover Flow to see your albums lined up. It’s amazing, and it requires effort and time. Versus on spotify, you just press the plus button and pay the monthly 9.99. Its so wild. What music do I actually like/need to get through my days? I’ve let the machine of algorithms and apps decide. I literally was stumped trying to think of what music I HAD to have. I want my life to feel more intentional in every way. I want to be extremely present. But, that can feel like so much pressure and overwhelming. This is such a fun refreshing start. GO GET ONE!!! 🎵🎶🎧

ipod classic

I just bought one on eBay. The interface is nostalgic and WAY better than spotify and like some other people have said, listening offline is key.

FIND A REFURBISHED MP3 PLAYER

i’ve been off Spotify for just shy of a year (!!) and owe much of my success to my refurbished iPod and the Chicago Public Library. I made the transition very strategically, making a list of all my playlists and manually rebuilding them in iTunes with music I ripped from CDs and purchased from Bandcamp (Bandcamp Friday is the best!). I keep all of my mp3s backed up on an external hard drive just in case something happens to my iPod. I have found myself more actively listening to new music, music I didn’t remember I loved, and seeking out CDs at the library and used CD stores. It’s been a journey, a hobby, a discovery, and an absolute blast.
