The one thing most people dont realize about why the iPod was popular was because it was actually the fastest device to transfer music to. At the time, music devices were using serial connections if you can believe that, and FireWire was th

I agree their pricing decisions were not in line with their users. Soundcloud Go was poorly positioned, and their original premium tiers did not provide enough benefit for what they cost. SoundCloud is far from 'failed' the servic

I find it fascinating that human society can spend so much time and money trying to optimize the current state (highway, roads, public transport, etc) when the root cause of the issue (having to work on-site, or in a city) seems like such a

People my age drive down the road and listen to music. No one - and i mean no one - ever checks out the advertisements on the side of the road. I really don't see anyway for them to make money at this point.
