   This came up on shuffle today, so it’s the perfect opportunity to remind you that @joeressington is an awesome musician.

   Go find this album on Bandcamp!

     @killyourfm @joeressington I can't say I ever expected to see that on an iPod! 😂

     @certainlytwice @joeressington It's a 6th gen iPod Classic that's been modded with 512GB flash storage, 1900mAh battery, and brand new case.

     @JoeRess Yea, I cut the cord on Spotify last year, then went over to Tidal because of its Plex integration.

     But now I'm ready to cut that out as well. Between my digital collection, CDs and vinyl, I'm completely satisfied with the music that's available for me to listen to, ya know?

     @killyourfm I saw. I know a few people with dedicated music devices but I just use my phone. I only really have a few GB of local music and NewPipe takes care of the rest. It makes sense for people with a large collection though. And obviously fuck relying 100% on Spotify etc.

     @aukondk Ahhh, the last gen to have the Wolfson DAC. A glorious model!

     @killyourfm I've dug out my 5th gen and started speccing upgrades.

     Obviously I'm gonna replace the drive with flash memory and the batt with a fresh one.

     I'm tempted to get a new casing in some funky colours. But the screen has dead lines of pixels which unfortunately doubles the cost of renovation and as the faceplate is in pretty good condition I might hold off on that.

     I bought this thing second hand back in 08 specifically to run Rockbox on it, I never used the Apple firmware.
