I suppose I should spend a little time putting some playlists together. I had made lots of mix discs before, and the playlists will serve the same purpose.

The wi-fi network in the car was ridiculously expensive - $30/month for 3 gigs of data. My smartphone has unlimited data, so I will obviously not subscribe to Chevy's services.

In any event, NPR has always been one of my favorite things to listen to in the car, so things will not be all that big of a change, I suppose. It just makes me feel old that I remember CDs being a revolutionary new technology - and now they are obsolete. At least I can come home and spin some vinyl.

Regards,
