So with the recent death of my 7 year-old PowerMac G5 tower, and with no substantial funds to buy a new personal computer until early next year, I am going to use my iPad as the go-between for the next 180 days.

This is why some people still like buying physical CDs for the cover art and liner notes. (Don’t kid yourself. We still burn it to iTunes.)
