I could have made this a poll, but I know for me there's more than one answer.
I know people have iPod docks and/or USB ports in their cars.
Other people still use CDs and CD-Rs in their cars.
But how do you listen to music at home? Do you have an iPod/phone dock that you hook up to a sound system or do you listen to music from another source?
@ Busta Charmichael tried to clown me because I suggested he burn a CD-R and listen to it. I have iTunes on my iMac but my iMac is in my office. If I want to listen to music in my living room I burn a CD-R and put it in the DVD player. Am I the only one that still burns CD-Rs? They're cheap and convenient. And if you want to burn another copy its pretty easy.
I also have two Technic 1200s and a pretty sizable record collection, but I only listen to records when I'm drinking/smoking.
Basically I listen to music on the computer but if I want to listen to music in the living room I burn a CD-R or order the CD from Amazon. I think paying for an mp3 doesn't make any sense. I've never bought an mp3 in my life and don't plan on it. You can swipe just about anything from Youtube for free.
I know there's streaming sites like Tidal and Spotify, but, as far as I know, you have to be logged on to the internet to use them, so the question still remains; how do you listen to music?

I can only really take in an album after the kids go to bed. So i use headphones while streaming from Spotify or an itunes purchase.
Usually while sippin on some drink.

I'm pretty sure its the other way around, I'm in your feelings or else you would have simply answered the question. -

OK, I get that you can download music to your phone, but how do you listen to it? With headphones? do you hook your phone up to a sound system? Do you play loud music in your living room from your phone? Do you have roommates so listening to music in the living room isn't an option? Do you live with your folks and have to keep the music down? -

Headphones around people in public like malls and stores
Out loud, Speaker, Headphones at home depends on how I feel
Bluetooth or Headphones in car
.....I stay with a pair of headphones its a must for me -
At the gym or at home i usually walk around with headphones, i have a bluetooth speaker but i dont use it very often anymore
I still use cd's and cd-r's in the car -
I can only really take in an album after the kids go to bed. So i use headphones while streaming from Spotify or an itunes purchase.
Usually while sippin on some drink.

phone on tha go then itunes on tha cp -
On my phone.
My old Cd and tape catalog I've all payed for again and downloaded on to my phone.
Bluetooth that ? at home and in the ride.
Pay for music or its all gonna turn into garbage like stitches and slim whatever !! -
listen through my headphones from my iphone.
-
I have a 3 stage test, usually for albums i like on the first listen.
As time has gone on these methods have become more sophisticated thanks to the advancement in technology.
1st it goes through my sonos system, ease of convenience and since i have a play 5 pretty decent quality as well.Then on my ipod for the headphone check, i need to upgrade from my beats studio because ive fallen out of love with them and have been eyeing up some bose's.finally through the whip (through usb preferably a rip of higher than 320kps or flacc) so i can properly test out the bass and pick up those frequencies you otherwise don't get on a standard set up, i am a self proclaimed bass head at the end of the day.
All my music is stored on 2 external hard drives (1 for backup) and a nat server, i usually load up a usb full of whatevers recently been out so that way i can give them to friends and whoever, people still ask me to burn cds for them but i find it easier just to give then a bunch of stuff digitally and they can make their own mixes themselves.
Im also glad i kept the majority of my cd collection, the rare day where i have to use the company van means they come in use because all that has is a standard cd player.
So yeah i got everything figured out.
I'd love to start building a vinyl collection as well.
-
5grand got that record player strapped to his back with a left and right speaker connected wired up ! Jk 5 I'm playing
-
I usually listen to music on my iPhone and iMac.
But when I'm in my whip
at home in my living room
-
Headphones and the Android, Bluetooth speaker, Amp + CD book & Aux in the whip, Computer speakers, portable/hands-free TurnTable..
-
Yo 5 , Why don't you tell us how you bumping ? these days ?
IN OUR EARS DOGGY
As always !!!
Even you know the answer to that well you bumping K Blow dog -
In the car and on the lap top
Havent burned a cd in a while just been buying albums -
-
Usually I roll somethin sticky up and blaze up while bumping my music. The selection varies from oldies(70s-90s hip hop, RnB , Soul) to the new ? . Very relaxing after a long day of work.
-
In my car cause i got a good System, at home the neighbours would call 5-0, or in the gym
-
Vinyl & cd on a pioneer system at home. In ear and over the ear headphones with flac rips or at least 320kbps & headphone amp on the go. Got all my music on a usb stick for the whip.
-
In car most of the time or at the gym... I buy CDs and records still, but I do download a few tunes and make CD-R mixtapes for the car too...
I got a record and CD player at home aswell, but tbh I dont listen to music at home on my sound system like I used to, I check tunes on my laptop etc but typing this I just realised I cant remember the last time I bumped music on my sound system!!!
Like most people I got iTunes, so the plan is to put my whole CD collection onto my iTunes EVENTUALLY and then get a couple iPods and have them kept in my car at all times and just keep updating my iPod, but its a mission...
